If the first half was littered with brawls and cynical tackles, the second half came to life with players from both teams displaying their skills. FC Goa and East Bengal consistently traded blows early in the second half and one of them surely ought to have found the opening within the first fifteen minutes.

EB had three clear-cut opportunities, however, striker, Dudu fluffed his chances in front of goal twice in as many minutes. Al Amna then burst wonderfully into the box before he was expertly shouldered off the ball by Goa's CB, Seriton.

At the other end, Goa had their best chance but Edu Bedia failed to keep his composure. The game well and truly opened up in the second half but both sides lacked the quality to put the game to bed.
