ATK Mohun Bagan got off to a flying start in the 2020-21 Indian Super League (ISL) season with a narrow 1-0 win over Kerala Blasters on Friday at the GMC Stadium, Bambolim.
Roy Krishna's 67th-minute strike ensured three points for Antonio Lopez Habas' side in the club's first-ever ISL match.
It was a cagey start to the match as both teams took the safety-first approach. Yet, Bagan could have had their noses in front if Krishna had not scuffed his shot at the far post after latching on to a corner whipped in by Hernandez.
