Odisha FC

Amrinder Singh (6): Amrinder didn't have much to do during the game. There wasn't much he could do during the two-goal Odisha FC conceded.

Jerry Lalrinzuala (5.5): Jerry could have done better during the first goal Odisha conceded from a corner. Overall he was kept busy by Chhangte during the whole game.

Carlos Delgado (5.5): Carlos did well to deal with Jorge Diaz in the first half. He wasn't so influential in the second half.

Mourtada Fall (5.5): Mourtada Fall didn't have the best of games today. He was often seen out of position and had issues dealing with the likes of Jahouh and Diaz.

Amey Ranawade (5): Amay was often beaten by Bipin and Aksah Mishra. He should have done better during the first goal Mumbai scored from a corner.

Ahmed Jahouh (6): Jahouh had an average game today. He did play some crucial passes but overall was unable to control the game like he usually does.

Lenny Rodrigues (5.5): Lenny worked hard during the game but was unable to showcase his commanding presence during the game.

Isak Vanlalruatfela (6): It was from his cross that Odisha FC scored the opening goal. Nawaz made a fumble from his cross which Jerry didn't waste. Apart from that he did take some wayward attempts at goal.

Putea Khawlhring (5.5): Putea worked hard during the game and covered a lot of ground. He was unable to provide the required final passes that were expected from him.

Jerry Mawihmingthanga (6.5): Jerry scored the opening goal of the game today. It was his constant high press that forced Nawaz to make a mistake from the cross. Apart from scoring Jerry did get into a lot of threatening positions but failed to capitalise on the opportunities that came his way.

Diego Mauricio (5): Diego had a quiet game today, and failed to trouble the Mumbai defense. He was substituted in the 61st minute.
