MARGAO: A revitalised Marcelinho and talisman Roy Krishna inspired ATK Mohun Bagan to a thrilling 3-2 win over Kerala Blasters in an Indian Super League match on Sunday.
Kerala Blasters led through goals from Gary Hooper (14th minute) and Costa Nhamoinesu (51st) before a strike from Marcelinho (59th) and a brace from Krishna (65th, 87th) helped Bagan complete a thrilling comeback.
Marcelinho, having joined ATKMB on loan from Odisha, was struggling for game time at his former club. But on Sunday, he looked a man transformed, adding spark to the Mariners’ struggling attack, thriving in a free role upfront.
