Four different scorers rose to the occasion as Kolkata giants Mohun Bagan Super Giant (MBSG) continued their winning momentum with a 4-2 comeback win over NorthEast United FC in the ongoing ISL 2023-24 at the Salt Lake Stadium here on Saturday night.

The Highlanders had their new striker Tomi Juric score a brace, but poor defending pulled them down as they found the Mariners finding frequent breakthroughs past the Juan Pedro Benali-coached side. Mohun Bagan scored twice in first-half injury time through Liston Colaco (45+1) and Jason Cummings (45+4) after Juric opened the scoring by converting a penalty in the sixth minute. Juric found the net again in the 50th minute to level the score 2-2. But Mohun Bagan Super Giant scored through Dimitrios Petratos (53rd minute) and Sahal Abdul Samad (57th minute) as they claimed three points.
