East Bengal FC produced a dominant display to beat Odisha FC 3-0 in the Indian Super League at the PJN Stadium in Margao on Tuesday.
Bipin Singh Thounaojam opened the scoring early and later provided an assist, while Youssef Ezzejjari struck twice in the second half to seal the emphatic win. The victory lifted East Bengal to fourth in the standings with 18 points from nine matches, boosting their playoff ambitions.
Odisha, meanwhile, remain near the bottom after another disappointing outing, struggling to create clear chances against East Bengal’s disciplined backline.
East Bengal’s attacking unit looked sharp throughout, with PV Vishnu playing a crucial role in both build-up and chance creation. The Red and Gold Brigade will now look to carry this momentum into their next fixture as the race for playoff spots intensifies.
