FC Pune City beat Mumbai City FC 2-1: As it happened

The two Maharashtra clubs go head to head.

FC Pune City host Mumbai City in Balewadi on Wednesday. Both sides come to the match on the back of wins in their respective matches before this. FC Pune City were impressive in their 4-1 thrashing of defending champions ATK at the Salt Lake Stadium. Mumbai City FC deflated whatever momentum FC Goa had got from their win over Chennaiyin FC by beating them 2-1. Goa’s attendances had taken a hit last season and that had coincided with their poor performances. They will be looking to give their fans a reason to smile in this match.

Emiliano Alfaro and Marcelinho ticked all the right boxes in their previous match. The duo have been brought in to score goals and Alfaro has managed to do that so far. Mumbai City FC seem to have found a worthy replacement to Diego Forlan and Sunil Chhetri in Everton Dos Santos. Catch live score and updates of the ISL match between FC Pune City and Mumbai City.
