Bengaluru FC came from behind to defeat Odisha FC by 2-1 in the Indian Super League (ISL) 2021-22 at the Athletic Stadium in Bambolim.

The result kept the Blues in the hunt for a semi-finals spot as they climb to fifth with 26 points, one behind fourth-placed Kerala Blasters FC. On the other hand, a third winless result means OFC’s semi-final hope suffer a huge blow.

Nandhakumar Sekar (8’) gave Odisha FC an early lead in the game but Danish Farooq’s (31’) header levelled the score. Cleiton Silva (49’) scored from the penalty spot in the second half, which eventually separated the two teams.

Danish Farooq won the Hero of the Match Award.

Odisha FC’s next match will be against ATK Mohun Bagan at the Tilak Maidan Stadium on Thursday whereas Bengaluru FC will also play the Mariners next at the PJN Stadium on Sunday.

In the next match, Mumbai City FC will lock horn with SC East Bengal.
