ATK Mohun Bagan vs Odisha

ATKMB vs OFC: Read the pre-match build-up and live updates of the Indian Super League knockout match between ATK Mohun Bagan and Odisha FC.

Odisha looks to start with a calm temperament to wait for a mistake by ATK Mohun Bagan, which is enjoying most of the ball possession. Amrinder, however, makes a good reflex save to deny the opening goal with the corner in the follow-up seeing OFC clear the ball out of danger. In the follow-up, Asish delivers a cross from the right to left for Colaco, but the youngster fails to shoot on time as Amrinder gets to the ball first. The former Bengaluru FC winger is struggling and may juts be forced to leave the field as Liston Colaco gets up and gears up to come on. It should provide more confidence to the host in its third playoff appearance. Dimitrios takes the free-kick and the floated ball is headed beautifully on target by McHugh. The referee gives a foul, but keeps his cards in his pocket after what looked like a rather rough challenge. Meanwhile Subhasish’cross is cleared by Thoiba as Odisha looks to limit its bleeding in the last minutes of the match. He passes to Colaco who fails to shoot past Jerry and Odisha gets back the ball now. ATK Mohun Bagan looks to attack from a free-kick but Subhasish Bose ends up getting trapped in the off-side trap. Nandha, however, tries a solo attempt, with an aerial hit to bluff the goalkeeper, but Arsh catches the ball easily to resume the match with a goal-kick. Puitea fouls Victor in what looked like a series of kicks on the OFC player’s foot.

Odisha FC has lost all six of its previous Hero ISL matches vs ATK Mohun Bagan. Odisha FC currently has a healthy roster from which to chose. Head coach Josep Gombau will continue to be concerned about that unconvincing away performance. The team under Josep Gombau has outscored teams like ATKMB, Bengaluru FC, and Kerala Blasters this season while playing an aggressive, courageous style. Dimitri Petratos will be looking to increase his goal total against Odisha FC. Both of those victories, one of which was against Kerala Blasters FC in a thrilling Bengal Derby match that preserved their undefeated record, would boost morale. Boumous then passed it to McHugh who then laid it to Petratos who with his instep put the ball into the back of the net. Their season was in danger of failing after losing players like Joni Kauko and Florentin Pogba, but ATKMB persevered and finished a respectable third. In a lovely and bright encounter, Odisha FC began the game on an offensive note, but physical to be accurate. With both sides trying their best to grab a goal, the game was mostly played in the midfield. Liston Colaco came on to replace the former after just 8 minutes of the game. A stunning performance by the hosts helped the Kolkata-based side beat Odisha at home.
