90+5' SAVE! What a save from Amrinder. Easily one of the best saves in the history of ISL.

Sahal goes into the box and finds Ogbeche. The Nigerian takes one touch to control it and with the other blasts his shot. But, Amrinder, from 5 yards out, parries it away for a corner kick. The Punjabi lad collects the resulting corner kick comfortably.

90+4' Sahal dribbles past one player and looks to find Mohammad Rakip on the left flank. But, the pass is wayward and the ball goes out for a goal-kick.

90+3' Amine Chermiti is awarded the Hero of the Match for his goal and his splendid work rate.

84' How did Mumbai City FC miss that? That is the worst miss of the season so far.

Gianni Zuiverloon and Jairo Rodrigues end up tackling each other. Bilal Khan comes off his line and misses the ball completely. The Gabonese has an open net to take a shot at from edge of the penalty area. He goes for a low cross but there is no Mumbai City FC player to slot it home. What was he thinking?

82' GOAL! Amine Chermiti gives Mumbai City FC the lead.

Souvik Chakarabarti on the overlap delivers a low cross and the Kerala Blasters defenders miss it completely. No one marks the Tunisian and he buries the ball into the back of the net. It is Kerala Blasters 0-1 Mumbai City FC here in Kochi.

81' And, another wasteful effort. Utterly shambolic from the Tunisian.

80' Mumbai City FC win another free-kick. Larbi prepares to take it. Let's see his delivery this time.

77' And, the cheer from the crowd can mean only one thing. Last year's ISL Emerging Player of the Year comes on.

OFF- Prasanth K
ON- Sahal Abdul Samad

76' OFFSIDE! Bartholomew Ogbeche tries to release Raphael Messi but then, Pratik Chowdhury steps forward a yard and forces the Cameroonian in an offside position. Good defending from the former Jamshedpur FC man.

75' Jessel goes on the overlap and tries to go past Shouvik. But, the Mumbai City FC full-back shields the ball brilliantly and sees it out for a goal-kick.

74' Mumbai City FC throw the kitchen-sink as they make their final change with 15 minutes left to play.

OFF- Diego Carlos
ON- Serge Kevyn

73' And, that cross from Prasanth just sums up Kerala Blasters' day. Awful one by the local lad as the ball balloons away for a goal-kick.

70' Twenty minutes left to play but the scoreline is still nil-nil. Will it change?

67' Kerala Blasters make their second change.

OFF-Sergio Cidoncha
ON- Raphael Messi Bouli

66' Larbi goes for the outswinger but the ball goes out of the byline. The assistant has seen it and awards a goal-kick to Kerala Blasters.

65' Ogbeche does his defensive duty to perfection as he heads the ball away for a Mumbai City FC corner-kick!

64' Jairo goes in the book for pulling the shirt of a Mumbai City player. Larbi takes it. What can he do now?

So, a Mumbai City official gets a yellow card now!

62' Cido goes for glory! The ball hits the wall and Kerala Blasters have a corner.

61' Sarthak Golui goes in the book now as he concedes a free-kick in a dangerous position. What can Kerala Blasters produce here?

58' Subhasish flicks on the ball with his head from the free-kick but Bilal Khan collects it safely.

OFF- Halicharan Narzary
ON- Rahul KP

53' MISS! How did Modou Sougou miss that?

Diego Carlos swings in a low cross from the left-wing, Chermiti dummies it, and lays it off for Sougou. But, the Senegalese misses to find the open net. We have seen Sogou bury that countless times last season.

52' Mumbai City FC's Larbi swings in a corner but Bilal takes no chance and punches it away for another corner. Nothing comes from the subsequent flag kick as the ball loops away and the ball nests on the top of the net.

48' Nothing comes out from the free-kick but Mumbai City FC still have the ball in the final third. The run ends with Modou Sogou flagged offside. A stat for the nerds. He was offside a whopping 45 times last season.

47' Subhasish wins a foul for Mumbai City FC as Zuiverloon puts his leg on his ribs.

46' PEEP! We are underway again at Kochi.

HT| There is the half-time whistle and Mumbai City FC would be the most relieved team. They were lucky not to concede from set-pieces in the dying embers of the first half as Kerala Blasters looked extremely dangerous. Jorge Costa needs to give a good pep talk to raise their morale.

45' 2 Minutes added on!

45' Moustapha Gning goes into the book for handling the ball.

45' MISS! Jessel Carneiro takes a good corner-kick. Jairo heads it the first time, trying to find Gning on the far post. But, the Senegalese hands it.

44' SHOT! Jairo heads it down from a Sergio-Cidoncha free-kick but then Amrinder saves Mumbai City FC's day and parries the ball for a corner-kick.

43' Kerala Blasters have another free-kick from a dangerous situation as Pratik pulls a soft foul on Ogbeche.

41' An early double change for Mumbai City FC as Paulo Machado and Mato Grgic go out owing to injuries. Mumbai City FC playing with an all-Indian backline now.

OFF- Mato Grgic, Paulo Machado
ON- Modou Sougou, Pratik Chowdhury

40' And, we have the first yellow card of the game finally. Mato Grgic goes in the book for a high foot on Halicharan Narzary. Narzary is on the stretcher and is down.

39' Machado takes a shot but misses it completely in his first attempt. Luckily for him, the ball falls on his feet itself and the Portuguese takes a second attempt only to see it sail wide.

38' Machado gets clipped here by Prasanth but the referee keeps the card in his pocket! The refereeing is pathetic in this game.

36' Nothing comes from the corner-kick either. Mohammad Larbi takes it and the Tunisian fails to beat the first man itself.

35' CHANCE! Diego Carlos swings in a good cross from just outside the box for Mumbai City FC on the counter. But, then Zuiverloon stands tall and flicks the ball with his head for a corner.

34' Nothing! Nothing happening here. The defenders are standing tall in each of the occasions.
