ATK Mohun Bagan (ATKMB) has often been criticised for not living up to its potential in front of goal and for being content with 1-0 wins. However, none of the flak the Mariners have been subjected to mattered on Saturday as they coasted to a thumping 4-1 win over Odisha FC in the Indian Super League at the GMC Stadium in Bambolim.
Manvir Singh and Roy Krishna were the architects of the victory as they struck a brace each to ensure ATKMB remained within three points of table-topper Mumbai City.
The result: Odisha FC 1 (Cole Alexander 45+2) lost to ATK Mohun Bagan 4 (Manvir Singh 11, 54, Roy Krishna 83-pen, 86).
Sunday’s matches: Jamshedpur vs East Bengal, 5 p.m.; Hyderabad vs NEUFC, 7.30 p.m.
