Mohun Bagan started the 2024-25 ISL season with a 2-2 draw in front of their own supporters in Kolkata on September 13. The Mariners shared the spoils despite taking a 2-0 lead in the first-half courtesy of Tiri's own goal and Alberto Rodriguez's 28th-minute effort. The Islanders fought back in the second-half and netted two goals in the final 20 minutes through Tiri and Thaer Krouma. Five days later, Jose Molina's side played out a goalless draw with Ravshan in the AFC Cup.
Mohun Bagan are now desperate to secure their first win of the season. Despite having more than 60% of possession, Molina's side recorded just two shots on target in the entire match against the Tajikistan club at Salt Lake Stadium. The Spanish tactician will be hoping for the likes of Jason Cummings and Dimitrios Petratos to fire on all cylinders at the third time of asking in front their own supporters.
North East United FC, on the other hand, started the 2024-25 ISL season positively, taking all three points away to tournament debutants Mohammedan SC at Kishore Bharati Krirangan on Monday (September 16). Substitute Alaeddine Ajaraie's lone goal in the 94th-minute separated the two sides in Kolkata. Jitin MS, who scored four goals in Durand Cup, continued his impressive form with a Man of the match performance versus MSC. The Kerala-born attacker was a constant threat down the wings but lacked composure in front of goal.
