Mumbai City FC edged Chennaiyin FC in an intense Indian Super League clash that finished 2-1 in their favour at the GMC Stadium, Bambolim on Wednesday. The victory helped the Islanders register their fourth consecutive win in the ISL and go top of the table with 12 points from five matches.
However, Chennaiyin FC put in a very good performance, taking the initiative to the Islanders. They restricted Mumbai's attacking instincts and created plenty of chances for themselves and even saw quite a few penalty shouts turned down.
Mumbai head coach Sergio Lobera applauded the Marina Machans for their solid performance and said it was not an easy win for his side.
