This chance was converted by Lallianzuala Chhangte to give Chennaiyin FC a 2-1 lead in the game. However, FC Goa's Ishan Pandita found the net in stoppage time to level the scores at 1-1.

The experienced defender was booked six times during the ISL 2020-21. He was also suspended for the game against SC East Bengal after having accumulated four yellow cards from the first six games of the season.
