Mandar Rao Desai and Nicolas Anelka saw their shots go wide within the first few minutes. However, the Peter Reid side slowly began to get a foothold in the game as they kept the ball for longer periods. They found the visitors extremely hard to break down though, and were forced to spread the play wide.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:arial\">The Robert Pir&egrave;s-Andr&eacute; Santos combo in the middle was influential for the visitors as they dictated the pace of play. The closest either side came to a goal was in the 42nd minute. An Andr&eacute; Moritz through ball found its way to Lalrindika Ralte who dashed in and took a shot but Jan &Scaron;eda got down quickly to his right and made the stop.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:arial\">It was more of the same in the second half as both teams attacked with purpose. The mid-field battle continued with Pires and Santos for Goa and Jan &Scaron;tohanzl and Moritz for Mumbai exerting themselves in a bid to change the game.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n<p><span style=\"font-size:14px\"><span style=\"font-family:arial\">Goa pushed forward as the clock ticked on but were unable to get the decisive breakthrough as the final whistle blew.<\/span><\/span><\/p>\r\n",
