sports.ndtv.com

Mumbai City FC notched up a 2-0 win over Odisha FC in a tightly contested affair in the Indian Super League on Saturday. A Shubam Sarangi own goal and a 94th-minute Bipin Singh strike were enough to secure all three points for the Islanders.

In a lacklustre first half, neither side posed a threat in the opposition's penalty area. Both defences were alert to mop up the loose balls but it was the inability of players to find the decisive pass as well as the failure to apply the final touch that kept this game goalless at the midway point.

On the left flank, Bipin Singh had the Odisha FC defence worried in the opening stages of the game. In the sixth minute, Bipin's low cross flashed across the face of goal as none of the Mumbai City attackers could tap it in.

Sahil Panwar swung in a threatening ball towards the far post from a corner in the 14th minute before it was palmed away by Phurba Lachenpa.
