Odisha FC  suffered a lost against ATK Mohun Bagan in the Indian Super League (ISL). ATK Mohun Bagan achieved a thumping 4-1 victory over Odisha FC in the ongoing seventh season of the ISL at the GMC Stadium, Bambolim on Saturday. After this defeat, Odisha FC interim coach Gerry Peyton said that the penalty conceded by skipper Cole Alexander was the turning point of the match.

the post-match press conference, Peyton said, "I think the penalty was the turning point of the game. At 2-1, I thought we were still in it. I made a change down the left-hand side to try and go forward, keep the ball more and play more with the ball. I think our No number Paul Ramfangzauva who is 19 years of age, he has had one season in the I-League last season. I think he's going to be very special player for India."

Talking about the game, the first half proved to be a cagey contest but two fine goals from either side meant the scoreline was all square at the break. Currently, Odisha FC is at the bottom in the ISL standings with 8 points from 15 matches. The side will next take on Kerala Blasters on Thursday.
