What a save from Prabhsukhan Singh Gill! First he spills the long-ranger and then makes an unbelievable save from point-blank range from the follow-on!!!
The 2nd half of extra-time begins! Just 15 mins more to score a winner otherwise the penalties will decide the game!
Both teams keep on maintaining the heat! East Bengal and Goa once again cancel out each other!
It's full-time here in Goa and still we have no result as of now! The match now goes to extra-time!
3 minutes of time added on! If you score, you win! If not, then 30 minutes of extra-time will decide. If 30 min is not enough then the pens will definitely do!
We are into the last 5 minutes of regulation time and it looks like, we are heading for extra-time! Can either of the sides eke out a winner?
End-to-end action! First it was East Bengal's attempt, which was cleared on the goal-line and then moments later, Goa's Brison and Drazic hits the bar and puts the header wide from close range respectively!!!
East Bengal won a corner from the right, but Sibille's header drifted off target. Moments before, tempers flared as Miguel and Borja clashed while challenging for the ball, forcing the referee to step in. While both avoided punishment, FC Goa's Drazic received a yellow card for dissent.
Ayush threaded a smart pass into the box for Brison, but a heavy first touch allowed Anwar - solid all night - to clear the danger. Soon after, Miguel's slick backheel released Bipin on the right, who delivered a brilliant cross to an unmarked Hiroshi. However, his weak header went straight to Hrithik, wasting yet another promising East Bengal opportunity.
FC Goa started the second half with more control, pushing East Bengal back early. Ayush Chhetri came close with a long-range strike that flew just over the crossbar. Moments later, chances fell to Drazic, Brison, and Borja, but none were converted - Borja missing twice, including a header that drifted wide.
East Bengal nearly punished those missed opportunities when Bipin kept a loose ball alive and squared it across goal, but Udanta misread the delivery, leaving Miguel to take a shot that he fired high into the stands.
With chances at both ends slipping away, the question now is whether FC Goa will regret not capitalising on their dominance.
East Bengal once again had a couple of chances to break the deadlock but the Goa defence was equal to it. It's half-time, time for re-grouping! Expect a cracker-jack of a half-time!
We are into the half-way mark and both the sides have cancelled out each other in the defence. EB did manage to breach the back-four quite a number of times but EB escpecially with Anwar Ali's presence have been rock solid at the back.
25 minutes into the game and niether of the sides have managed to break the deadlock! East Bengal look the more fluent side now but we expect this match to go down the wire.
East Bengal get yet another chance to score! The delivery to Naorem almost reached his feet but the EB winger didn't get it within his range to have a go.
East Bengal have been very physical today! They have conceded a handful of fouls in the opening 15 minutes...
For FC Goa, the match carries added significance. Their campaign in the 2025-26 AFC Champions League Two has been forgettable, with five defeats in five matches. Despite the poor run, the club believes maintaining a regular presence in Asian football is essential for long-term growth. Head coach Manolo Marquez will be focused on discipline, sharper finishing and tactical maturity as the Gaurs look to defend the title they won last year.
Victory would give Goa renewed confidence after their struggles outside domestic competition, while a loss-especially after their continental setbacks-would sting deeply.
East Bengal approach the final with a shot at reclaiming the trophy they last lifted in 2024. Oscar Bruzon's men have showcased resilience throughout the competition, bouncing back strongly after a surprising draw against Dempo SC in their opening fixture. Their semifinal win over Punjab FC, a commanding 3-1 performance, ensured they arrived in the final with momentum and belief.
Bruzon, however, will not be on the touchline after receiving a red card in the semifinal. Despite the suspension, he will aim to mentally prepare his team to stay compact defensively and convert chances efficiently. A win would reinforce confidence in his system and elevate East Bengal's standing among India's top clubs. A defeat, however, would feel like a missed breakthrough after showing promising progress.
Both sides have personnel concerns: Goa are awaiting fitness clearance on Sandesh Jhingan and Mohammed Yasir, while Iker Guarrotxena is ruled out due to suspension. East Bengal could be boosted by the return of striker Hamid Ahadad, who missed the semifinal.
With pressure, pride and a continental ticket on the line, Sunday's contest promises a thrilling finale.
