Chennaiyin FC guaranteed themselves a second-place finish in the league stage of the Indian Super League (ISL) after beating Mumbai City 1-0 here on Saturday.
Rene Mihelic converted a penalty in the 67th minute to win the match for the former champions, who have secured their berth in the semi-finals.
The win lifted Chennaiyin's points tally to 32 -- eight behind top-placed Bengaluru FC. Third-placed Pune are third with 30 points and have sealed their place in the semi-finals.
FC Goa and Jamshedpur FC -- who meet each other on Sunday in a clash that will decide the fourth-placed team at the end of the league phase -- have 27 and 26 points respectively.
Mumbai remain in the seventh spot with 23 points.
