ISL 2022-23 Kerala Blasters 0-2 Mumbai City FC - 3 Talking points
An important victory for Mumbai City FC (Credits: ISL Media) Mumbai City usurped Kerala Blasters to the lead with Mehtab Singh profiting from a poor clearance in the 21st minute. The centre-back thundered the ball into the back of the net as soon as the ball arrived at his feet.

The visitors upped their ante and doubled their lead following a comical defensive error from Marko Leskovic. The Croat defender dived forward to clear the ball, but Pereyra Diaz won the ball and went past him to calmly slot the ball past Gill, ten minutes after the deadlock was broken. Des Buckingham's side came close to securing their third goal when Greg Stewart shot the ball from outside the penalty box.
However, Prabhsukhan Gill got a firm hand to divert the ball into a corner early in the second half. Manjappada stepped up their game and created a flurry of chances in the second half.

Adrian Luna found Dimitrios with an exquisite delivery from the left wing. The latter's diverted header was a whisker away from the post. A few minutes later, back-to-back opportunities for Dimitrios and Jeakson Singh were not sufficient to trouble the scoreline.

Luna was the closest to scoring on the night when his shot struck the post after a lovely tie-up by Jessel Carneiro from the left wing. This defeat will be a hard pill to swallow for Ivan Vukamonovic given the number of unconverted goalscoring opportunities in the second half. FT: KBFC - MCFC

A solid outing from this evening
FT: KBFC - MCFCA BIG win in Kochi puts us point behind 1st place on the table. A solid outing from this evening We shall look at three talking points from the Islanders' 2-0 victory over Kerala Blasters.
#3 Sloppy Kerala Blasters backline paid the price: Jessel Carneiro in action Ivan Vukomanovic will be fuming with the defending as the Blasters backline conceded two sloppy goals in the first-half. As for the opening goal, Dimitrios and Khabra's failure to clear the ball helped Mehtab's course to pick up the pieces and drive the visitors into the lead.

It was followed by a defensive catastrophe for the second goal. Greg Stewart was given time and space to find Pereyra Diaz. The former Kerala Blasters forward's touch took the ball away from Marko Leskovic, whose miscalculated tackle helped Mumbai double their tally.
