Chennaiyin made a bright start and threatened as early as the second minute. Imran found space in the final third and tested Padam Chettri with a firm effort, which was parried away. The rebound fell kindly for Daniel Chima Chukwu, but the striker failed to react in time before the offside flag was raised.
The Marina Machans dominated possession in the opening exchanges, while Mohammedan looked to slow the tempo and build through the flanks. Lalthankima and Lalngaihsaka attempted to stretch the play, with Mondal providing width through overlapping runs on the right. However, Chennaiyin maintained a compact defensive shape in the early stages.
