Mumbai City FC defeated FC Goa 6-5 on penalties at the GMC Stadium in Bambolim and entered the finals of the 2020-21 Hero Super League. The second leg remained goal less after 90 minutes of scheduled time and 30 minutes of stoppage time and the match had to be decided via a penalty shootout.
Only Bartholomew Ogbeche and Raynier Fernandes converted their spot-kicks for Mumbai City FC, while Igor Angulo and Ivan Gonzalez netted for FC Goa as the match went into sudden death. Mourtada Fall, Ranawade and Mandar Rao Dessai scored in sudden death for Mumbai City FC, whereas Pandita, Ortiz and Adil all scored their penalties for FC Goa, but Glan Martins’ miss allowed Borges to score from the spot and book Mumbai City FC’s berth in the final where they will meet the winners from Tuesday’s game between NorthEast United FC and ATK Mohun Bagan.

Amrinder Singh, armband around his bicep, leads Mumbai City in prayer. Next to him Sergio Lobera is fervently drawing crosses. The deities being called up on might be different, but the messages are the same. HELP . After 210 minutes of high-voltage, end-to-end football spread over three days, the scores are level. You could argue FC Goa have been the better side, but anyone of a Mumbai persuasion would merely respond with a nod to the scoreboard. 0-0 A.E.T (Agg. 2-2).

Bambolim : , March 8 (IANS) Mumbai City FC reached their first Indian Super League (ISL) final after beating FC Goa 6-5 on penalties in the second leg of the semi-final at the GMC Stadium on Monday.
Sergio Lobera I am very proud and happy to make the final. Its very special to play in final for me. I have very good players and personalities in dressing room. THey deserve to enjoy this moment and hopefully to win the trophy for the people who believed in us at the start. My focus is on the final. I wish them [FC Goa and Ferrando] the best in the Champions League. They played very good and in penalties everything is possible. When I was working in Spain, there are no penalties when you finish in top of the table. I want to win the trophy. [On goalkeeper change and no shots on target] About Amrinder, it was a decision of gking coach. It was a brave decision by my coach. For me, Amrinder is best goalkeeper in India but Purba can do a good job in penalties. It was a very difficult game. In 2 legs we suffered because we didnt have possesion of the ball.

Juan Ferrando [On chat with Match commissioner] I prefer not to talk about it. Eevrybody saw the game and saw the strange decisions. I had 6 players with big injuries. Princeton maybe out for one month. edu Bedia played with pain after tackle against HFC. Its impossible to play football here. At the end, I have good squad but I am scared of the injuries. I want to play football. We made a different system to win against Mumbai. Its necssary to focus on other details but. Squad of Mumbai is very good and expensive, Difficult to work in these situations. [All out approach
