MANJERI: Indian Super-League (ISL) golden boot winner Diego Mauricio’s first-half brace helped Odisha FC clinch the Super Cup 2023 title after beating Bengaluru FC 2-1 in the final at the EMS Stadium in Manjeri.

This is Odisha FC’s first major title.

It was the third final of the season for Bengaluru. For Simon Grayson’s boys, it proved the second defeat in a final in as many months, after losing the ISL final to ATK Mohun Bagan on penalties.

Odisha’s formidable attack consisting of Diego Mauricio, Nandhakumar, Victor Rodriguez and Jerry Mawihmingthanga -- was expected to cause headaches to the formidable Bengaluru defence, and they did. Agencies
