Bengaluru: Bengaluru FC snuffed Odisha FC’s fightback to win their ISL-9 clash 3-1 at Sree Kanteerava Stadium here on Saturday evening.
Stung by two goals – by Rohit Kumar and Roy Krishna — in the space of three minutes in the first half, Odisha reduced the margin through a Diego Mauricio penalty in the 50th minute.
The Juggernauts pressed for the equaliser and created a handful of opportunities, but failed to find the target a second time.
As time ran out, it was the home team which found a third goal against the run of play as Jerry’s mispass was picked up by Pablo Perez and slotted home in injury time.
Bengaluru thus avenged their 0-1 first-leg defeat, which was Odisha’s fifth defeat on the road.
They have another away game next, against ATK Mohun Bagan on January 28.
