    ISL 2023-24: Mohun Bagan Super Giant Overcome Hyderabad FC Hurdle To Break Into Top Four

    By IANS News February 10, 2024 • 22:52 PM View: 489
    Mohun Bagan Super Giant: First-half strikes by Anirudh Thapa and Jason Cummings helped Mohun Bagan Super Giant secure their first win after four games in the Indian Super League (ISL) 2023-24 season as they registered a comfortable 2-0 win over Hyderabad FC at the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata on Saturday night.

    Both Thapa and Cummings were notable high-profile acquisitions made by the Mohun Bagan Super Giant ahead of the season, however, they hadn’t hit the ground running yet. Cummings had a handful of strikes to his name but the expectations of the impact that the team would have expected from a footballer experienced of playing in the FIFA World Cup was arguably missing so far. Similarly, Thapa had recorded reasonable playing time from the defensive midfield but lacked any goal contribution in the ISL 2023-24.

    Thankfully for Antonio Lopez Habas, these boxes were ticked in this encounter. In the 12th minute, the former Chennaiyin FC star displayed impressive positional awareness to get to the end of a corner kick, squabbling against the Hyderabad FC defenders to net the ball in and get an early lead for the home side.
