KOLKATA: Hyderabad FC hammered Mohammedan Sporting 4-0 to register their first win of the Indian Super League (ISL) 2024-25 season at the Kishore Bharati Krirangan in Kolkata on Saturday, October 26, 2024.
On a night where the hosts took the field in search of their maiden home win, it was Allan Paulista, who scored a brilliant brace with Stefan Sapic and Parag Shrivas also joining the goal-scoring bonanza. Paulista was named the Key Performer of the Match.
Thangboi Singto’s men initiated the groundwork for a brilliant win when Allan Paulista capitalised on goalkeeper Padam Chettri’s mistake to hand the visitors an early lead in the fourth minute.
Hyderabad FC piled more pressure on Mohammedan SC’s backline and they were duly rewarded in the 12th minute when Stefan Sapic rose high to head home the second goal from a Cy Goddard corner.
Three minutes after the second goal, Paulista added another to his tally after Parag Shrivas found the Brazilian unmarked in the final third.
The visitors added another goal to their scoresheet in the 51st minute when Parag Shrivas combined with Alba to produce a long-range missile.
Hyderabad FC will host Mohun Bagan Super Giant on October 30. Mohammedan Sporting will be in action against East Bengal on November 9.
