BHUBANESWAR: Chennaiyin booked their passage into the quarter-finals of the 2019 Hero Super Cup with a well-played 2-0 victory over fellow Hero Indian Super League side (Hero ISL) Mumbai City at the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar.

The match started on a cagey note with both sides battling it out in midfield with chances at a minimum during the opening exchanges. Raynier Fernandes of Mumbai City and Isaac Vanmalsawma of Chennaiyin caused the most danger with their pace and trickery. However, the first real opening of the game would fall to striker Jeje for Chennaiyin. The forward picked up the ball near the edge of the box. With Lucian Goian standing up to him, he created a yard of space for himself before firing a left-footed shot which went wide of the far post.
