EXPECTED GOALS [xG]
xG Analysis by Amrit
- A game that neither side really deserved to win, so a draw is probably fair.
- First 45 minutes was all Odisha with Xisco running the show, but, in classic Xisco fashion, it ended 0-0.
- In the 2nd, CFC came back strongly but kept switching off at crucial moments.
TALKING POINTS
Chennaiyin FC took the lead twice in tonight’s game against Odisha, but lapses in defense meant they could only salvage a point at home.
- Chennai were all at sea in the first half with Odisha FC keeping possession well and looked threatening moving forward.
- Germanpreet Singh was brought on in place of Saighani and he helped the home side get a grip on the game.
- Chennaiyin took threatening from set-pieces (scored from one) while Odisha FC had no set-piece game to speak of.
- Conceding twice after leading – Chennaiyin have some time to brood and introspect. Their next ISL match is against Jamshedpur FC on Dec. 9.
