FotMob’s live table after the match showed Mohun Bagan Super Giant on 20 points, FC Goa and Mumbai City on 19, and Jamshedpur on 18. (fotmob.com) That squeeze was sharpened by Bengaluru FC’s 0-0 draw with Mumbai City FC earlier on April 25 at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium. The Hindu reported the point did little for Bengaluru’s title hopes, while Mumbai missed a chance to go top. (thehindu.com) (newsable.asianetnews.com) Outlook’s match report listed Mumbai City third on 19 points and Bengaluru fifth on 16 after that stalemate, leaving Jamshedpur’s later win enough to jump above Bengaluru into fourth. (outlookindia.com 1) (outlookindia.com 2) Jamshedpur next host FC Goa on May 1, while Chennaiyin travel to Punjab FC on May 6. The 4-1 scoreline changed the table immediately, but the next round now gives Jamshedpur a direct test against a side above them. (fotmob.com)
