I'm providing the key and the empty method to the object, but still getting an error "unexpected identifier"

I'm not sure what I'm missing. I've even referenced other lessons that include adding a method to an object literal and I can't see what I'm doing wrong.

object.js 
const player1 = {
  name: 'Bob',
  color: 'green',
  isTurn: true
  play: play(){}
}

There's a missing comma between the third and fourth attributes, and the method definition should have the keyword function instead of the name a 2nd time.
