Odisha FC flex muscle at home with Mumbai City FC scalp

Bhubaneswar: Odisha FC toppled Mumbai City FC 2-0 to make it three wins out of three at the Kalinga Stadium here on Saturday. After a barren first-half, goals from Aridane Santana (48’) and Xisco Hernandez (74’) were enough for Josep Gombau’s men to floor Mumbai City who fell to their second consecutive defeat in the Hero Indian Super League.

The three points have taken Odisha’s tally to 18 points from 12 matches. It sees Odisha surge into the top-four at the expense of Mumbai who are two points adrift.

ATK will face Kerala Blasters at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan on Sunday. ATK, two-time champions, and Kerala Blasters, two-time runners-up, have some history between them in the ISL. On both occasions that ATK won the title, it was the side from Kochi that they vanquished in the final. IANS
