Mohun Bagan increased their advantage in the 68th minute. Amrinder Singh stopped Sahal Abdul Samad’s long-range attempt, but Dimitri Petratos was there to score on the rebound.

In the 73rd minute, Liston Colaco came on to replace Sahal Abdul Samad, and he had an immediate impact. The Indian Super League and Durand Cup champions increased their lead to 3-0 six minutes after their arrival thanks to his header.

In the 82nd minute, Dimitri Petratos scored his second goal of the game to make it 4-0 and end any possibility of an Odisha FC comeback.
