Luck seemed to be on Mumbai City FC's side as the hosts eked out a 1-0 win to halt Chennaiyin FC's three-match winning run in the Hero Indian Super League (ISL) at the Mumbai Football Arena in Andheri yesterday. The hosts are now ranked fifth in the table with seven points, while Chennai remain in third place with nine. Mumbai got the all- important match-winner when Cameroon defender Achille Emana scored from the penalty spot (58th minute) for their second win in five games.
