Hyderabad FC moved to the summit of the ISL table for the first time in their history following a 2-2 draw with ATK Mohun Bagan.
Match 50 of this season's ISL saw a goal after just 12 seconds with David Williams firing home the Mariners' opener. The Nizams then hit back through Bartholomew Ogbeche following a mistake by Amrinder Singh.
ATK Mohun Bagan took the lead again through an Asish Rai own goal only for Javier Siverio to score an injury-time leveler for Hyderabad FC.
Here are the player ratings for both ISL teams from this engaging ISL 2021-22 contest:
ATK Mohun Bagan Player Ratings
Amrinder Singh - 5.5/10
It was arguably the most topsy-turvy performance from a goalkeeper this season. Amrinder Singh was nervousness personified in the first half, making the mistake for the first goal, and was lucky to concede just once. He improved massively in the second half, but could do nothing about Siverio's header.
Prabir Das - 6/10
Das did his job well on the night, keeping Hyderabad FC's Nikhil Poojari quiet for almost the whole game.
Jose Arroyo - 6/10
Arroyo won several important headers for ATK Mohun Bagan but completely lost Siverio for the Nizams' equalizer.
Pritam Kotal - 6/10
Kotal was solid, making multiple vital interceptions to thwart Hyderabad FC's attacking intentions. But he too was in no man's land for Siverio's late goal.
Ashutosh Mehta - 6.5/10
Mehta put in a workhorse performance at right-back, keeping Aniket Jadhav largely in check. His impact waned in the second half but he did make some vital recovery tackles.

Carl McHugh - 6/10
McHugh started the game well for ATK Mohun Bagan, recording a key pass and two tackles. He unfortunately had to be taken off late in the first half due to a head injury.
Deepak Tangri - 5.5/10
Tangri looked largely solid in the first half against Hyderabad FC, but was hooked off at half-time for Lenny Rodrigues.
Liston Colaco - 5.5/10
Colaco had a below-par outing for the Mariners and was handled well by Asish Rai. He did get into some good positions, but put arguably the best chance of the game wide instead of extending his side's lead.
Hugo Boumous - 7/10
Boumous was a constant threat to Hyderabad FC when on the ball. He assisted Williams' opener with a cheeky backheel and went on to lay out three key passes.
Manvir Singh - 6.5/10
Manvir Singh worked hard defensively, making two tackles, but got no shots on target on the night like his fellow winger Colaco.
David Williams - 8/10
Williams was the star of the show for the Mariners on the night. His strike for their opener caught the Nizams unawares while it was his cross that led to Rai's own goal as well. Overall, he had a team-high four key passes and also contributed with two tackles.
ATK Mohun Bagan looked underwhelming without him on the pitch.
ATK Mohun Bagan Substitutes
Joni Kauko - 6.5/10
Kauko replaced McHugh in the first half. He initially struggled to impact the game, but got the header that led to his side's go-ahead goal.
Lenny Rodrigues - 6/10
It was a hardworking performance from Rodrigues, who came on for Tangri at half-time. He constantly broke down Hyderabad FC's forays forward and distributed the ball well.
Roy Krishna - 6/10
Krishna came on for Williams in the 72nd minute. The ATK Mohun Bagan substitute did cause problems for the Nizams' backline but wasn't a significant enough goal threat.
Subhashish Bose - N/A
Bose replaced Colaco in the 89th minute to help his side hold the lead. Unfortunately, he could do nothing about Hyderabad FC's equalizer.
Hyderabad FC Player Ratings
Laxmikant Kattimani - 6/10
Hyderabad FC custodian Kattimani could've done better with the first ATK Mohun Bagan goal but could do nothing about the second in this tight ISL contest. He wasn't tested much otherwise.
Akash Mishra - 6.5/10
It was a valiant performance from Mishra, who dealt well with Manvir Singh throughout the night and managed two tackles. He also got the assist for Hyderabad FC's late equalizer with a clever lofted ball over the top. However, he was found wanting in the build-up to Rai's own goal.
Juan Fernandez - 6.5/10
Fernandez could have closed down faster for ATK Mohun Bagan's opener, but put in an assured performance otherwise.
Chinglensana Singh - 6/10
Chinglensana Singh did his job well for the most part, though he did have a couple of nervy moments.
Asish Rai - 7/10
It was a unique performance from Rai, who was unfortunate to score an own goal, but brilliant otherwise for Hyderabad FC. He made a game-high five tackles, kept Colaco silent for large swathes and was a bundle of energy until the end.
Joao Victor - 6/10
Victor kept the ball moving against ATK Mohun Bagan's disjointed pressing, but faded off a little in the second half.
Hitesh Sharma - 6/10
Sharma impressed once again with a solid performance in the Hyderabad FC midfield. He did commit three fouls, but was hardly disturbed by the Mariners otherwise.
Aniket Jadhav - 6.5/10
Jadhav was inconsistent with his deliveries in the final third, but it was his cross that led to Ogbeche's first-half goal. He delivered two key passes, which were dealt with well by the ATK Mohun Bagan backline.
Edu Garcia - 6/10
Garcia struggled to assert the same level of influence he usually does as the Nizams' primary playmaker. He was often closed down quickly by the Mariners midfield.
Nikhil Poojari - 6/10
Poojari had an average outing against ATK Mohun Bagan and it showed when his replacement in the second half offered much more of a goal threat.
Bartholomew Ogbeche - 7/10
Ogbeche showed his striker's instincts once again to poke home his ninth goal of the ongoing ISL season after a mistake by Amrinder Singh. He didn't receive as much service otherwise, but did manage two key passes.
Hyderabad FC Substitutes
Joel Chianese - 6/10
Chianese replaced Garcia in the 60th minute but didn't impact the game much.
Sahil Tavora - 6.5/10
Tavora came on for Sharma in the 61st minute and had a couple of good moments against a tiring ATK Mohun Bagan defense.
Rohit Danu - 6.5/10
Danu was brought on for Jadhav in the 70th minute and offered better defensive and offensive support for Rai down the left flank.
Seityasen Singh - 6.5/10
Seityasen Singh replaced Poojari in the 70th minute and caused some trouble for the ATK Mohun Bagan defense with his directness.
Javier Siverio - 7/10
Siverio was the host of the late, late show for Hyderabad FC on the night. After replacing Victor in the 77th minute, he hardly had any touches of the ball. However, Siverio was in the right place at the right time to guide a perfect header past Amrinder Singh to take his side to the top of the ISL 2021-22 table.
