ATK Mohun Bagan 1-0 Odisha FC Talking Points; As Hosts Secure Narrow Win

ATK Mohun Bagan has edged past Odisha FC on Thursday. They have been victorious in this match with a margin of 1-0. The Mariners are now at the top of the table with three wins in three matches so far. On the other hand, Odisha FC is at the 10th position in the league table with 1 point in 3 matches. Here are the talking points of the match:

1. Roy Krishna The Saviour:

Roy Krishna has scored for ATK Mohun Bagan in back to back three matches. He has been able to score in these matches despite not being fully fit. Roy Krishna has not played really well in these three matches. However, he has been there in the right position at the right time for ATK Mohun Bagan. It is certainly a big positive aspect of a prolific goal scorer. His position sense has been brilliant. In three matches, he has scored at a crucial time for his side to secure the victory.

2. Antonio Lopez Habas Without Plan B?

The strategy of Antonio Lopez Habas has been brilliantly read by Stuart Baxter. Stuart Baxter has previous experience of working with Antonio Lopez Habas. That’s why Baxter has come with a certain game plan. Antonio Lopez Habas’ side has looked a bit clueless at times in this match. It will certainly create a bit of doubt amongst the players. Antonio Lopez Habas’ side is good against the teams who are mostly attacking in nature.

However, they face problems against the sides who do not keep much ball possession. Against these low-block sides, Antonio Lopez Habas’ side has to create chances rather than depending on counter-attacks. However, they are not a great side to penetrate the opponent defence with short passes. ATK Mohun Bagan might have won the match but these factors will keep Antonio Lopez Habas busy in the training sessions.

3. Baxter’s Odisha FC Will Feel Disappointed:

The players of Odisha FC have been able to implement the strategy of their coach quite well in the field. They will feel disappointed to accept the defeat with a last-minute goal of Roy Krishna. The defensive organization of Odisha FC has been impressive in this match. The British coach has worked hard in the training sessions and he has almost fulfilled their goal in this match.

4. Marcelinho Has Nothing More To Offer:

Marcelinho has played brilliant football in Indian Super League throughout last few seasons. However, he has not been at his best for Hyderabad FC in the previous season. Hyderabad FC has released him in this season and he has joined Odisha FC. In the first three matches, Marcelinho has failed to make an impact on the game. So, from the next match, Baxter might be thinking of excluding him from the starting XI.

5. ATK Mohun Bagan Potential Champions?

The defensive organization of ATK Mohun Bagan will keep them ahead of the other sides in this season. The presence of a prolific goal-getter like Roy Krishna will certainly help the cause. However, Antonio Lopez Habas must have to find a plan B very soon.
