An impressive attacking display by Nerijus Valskis ensured Jamshedpur FC bagged their first win in the Indian Super League Season 7 as they beat early pace-setters ATK Mohun Bagan 2-1 at the Tilak Maidan Stadium in Goa on Monday.
Valskis (30’, 66’) scored in either half for Owen Coyle’s side, while Krishna pulled a late goal back for ATKMB. The Lithuanian striker, who won the Golden Boot last season, is again top of the goal-scoring charts after 20 matches this season with five goals in four matches.
The result also meant ATKMB’s perfect run in the campaign came to an end following the defeat.
