Mumbai, November 24: Mohun Bagan Super Giant (MBSG) outplayed Jamshedpur FC (JFC) 3-0 at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan in Kolkata, and went to the top of the points table in the Indian Super League (ISL) 2024-25 season. Goals from Tom Aldred, Liston Colaco, and Jamie Maclaren saw the Mariners (MBSG) secure their fourth win in their last five matches this season. The game began at a slow tempo, but eventually came to life when Tom Aldred steered the hosts forward in the 15th minute. The British defender was at the right spot following a frenzy around the box from a Dimitrios Petratos corner.

The ball was initially cleared by the Jamshedpur FC defence, but a long-range effort from Deepak Tangri found a way to Alberto Rodriguez, who brought the ball down brilliantly for Aldred to hammer the opening goal, a release said. The goal handed Jose Molina's men a great confidence boost and they looked more assured in attack.

Jamshedpur FC's backline led by Stephen Eze were on their toes to keep the likes of Jamie Maclaren, Petratos and Liston at bay. The next spell of play was dominated by the Mariners, with the likes of Petratos and Liston forcing a couple of saves from Albino Gomes.

Mohun Bagan Super Giant's persistent attacks finally bore fruit at the stroke of halftime when Liston attacked a pocket of space in Jamshedpur FC's final third and from there he wriggled his way past a flurry of defenders before beating Albino with a vicious effort.

While Reliance Foundation Young Champs (RFYC) graduate Mohammed Sanan showed some sparks of brilliance with his darting runs, Pronay Halder looked out of sorts with a few turnovers and challenges in the middle. Molina's men extended their dominance over Jamshedpur FC in the 75th minute when Tangri's perfectly weighted delivery found the onrushing Manvir Singh on the right flank.

The 29-year-old danced his way past Albino, who came off his lines before squaring to Maclaren who calmly slotted it into the open net to put the match results beyond doubt.  In the final minutes of the game, Rei Tachikawa came up with a long-range effort in the hope of a consolation goal. However, Vishal Kaith parried it away with aplomb to secure the elusive clean sheet for the hosts.

Manvir Singh continued his exceptional run for the Mariners as he registered two assists on the night. He also created two chances whilst completing 16 out of his 23 attempted passes. Manvir did put in a defensive shift with a solitary interception. Mohun Bagan Super Giant will look to continue their dominant run when they next face Chennaiyin FC on November 30, whereas Jamshedpur FC will play Mohammedan SC on December 2.
