A couple of minutes later, Manvir's incisive pass finds Liston in the box, and this time, he just slots it home. The super sub has joined the party! Manvir's second assist of the day.

Mohun Bagan keep threatening even as Odisha keep their slim chances of a comeback alive.
Sahal scores in the 46th minute to give MBSG a 1-0 lead. Another dazzling one-touch move that finally leaves Odisha's goal open, and Sahal shoots from the edge of the box. That was the first attack of the second half. Thats all it took MBSG to assert their dominance finally.
Petratos sets up another brilliant chance! Sahal Samad is crowded out by some Odisha defenders to let the home team, down to 10, go into the break still level.
With Mourtada Fall's red card, Mohun Bagan have a huge advantage going into the second half. Odisha have stoood their ground bravely, but surely they cannot hold on for 45 more minutes.
Odisha come up with a period of pressure. Hector Yuste clears. Mohun Bagan regain control as the half heads into the last 5 minutes. MB will be disappointed to go into the break without a goal.
Mourtada Fall gets a red card for arguing with the referee! He got an yellow for a tackle on Boumous. Hugo tries to calm him down, but Fall keeps on arguing. Red! Fall walks off, still arguing.
Surely, MB will break in now against 10-man Odisha, shorn of their defensive wall.
Mohun Bagan dazzle! Odisha, somehow, survive. Petratos the man making things happen, sets up a 1-2-3 one touch sequence, Boumous at the end of it - he flies in with a right footer, it ruffles the side netting.
Petratos squares Sadiku, Sadiku shoots over. Mohun Bagan's quick passing are often putting the Odisha defence on edge, their muscle has managed to keep out too many shots on goal though.
