Mohun Bagan Super Giant beat Odisha FC 3-2 at Salt Lake Stadium on 5 November 2026 to return to the top of the ISL 2026-27 table. All five goals came after half-time in a see-saw contest at the venue.

Dejan Dražić scored twice for Mohun Bagan, while Lee Erwin struck late to settle the issue in the host’s favour. Odisha FC restored parity twice after Mohun Bagan had taken the lead, through Mahmoud Eid and Everton Nascimento. Erwin’s winner came in the 86th minute.

Match events

Mohun Bagan made an early statement of intent when Lee Erwin’s effort was saved by Odisha goalkeeper Hrithik Tiwari in the first minute. Liston Colaco’s right-footed effort from the centre of the box narrowly missed the target in the 22nd minute.

Everton Nascimento tested Vishal Kaith with a header in the 25th minute, but Kaith blocked the attempt. Tiwari produced a string of saves to keep Odisha in the contest.

Erwin was denied again with an angled effort in the 36th minute, while Manvir Singh shot wide two minutes later with the goalkeeper beaten. Liston Colaco struck the upright with an effort from close range in the 44th minute.

The first half was also marked by controversy over two potential handball incidents involving Odisha defender Saurabh Bhanwala. Mohun Bagan appealed vociferously in the 24th minute after Manvir’s attempted cross appeared to strike Bhanwala’s arm inside the box.

Another appeal followed just before the interval when Erwin’s attempt was blocked by what again appeared to be Bhanwala’s outstretched hand. Referee Tejas Nagvenkar waved away both appeals.

Second-half goals

The breakthrough arrived immediately after the restart. In the 46th minute, Dejan Dražić collected Anirudh Thapa’s incisive through ball and finished with his left foot into the bottom-left corner to give Mohun Bagan the lead. Odisha responded six minutes later.

Winger Nihal Sudeesh whipped in a cross across the face of the Mohun Bagan goal, and Mahmoud Eid made no mistake with his finish past Kaith to make it 1-1. Tiwari blocked Samir Zeljkovic’s effort from outside the box in the 64th minute.

Mohun Bagan regained the lead in the 73rd minute, with Dražić completing his brace. Odisha restored parity again in the 79th minute through Everton Nascimento. Lee Erwin had the final say with the winner in the 86th minute.
