Hyderabad FC vs Odisha Live: HFC 1-0 OFC at HT
An entertaining first half with both sides finding chances to score goals. Hyderabad’s target man Javier Siverio jumped the tallest to head in the opening goal and was threatening throughout the half to Odisha defence. Their Hyderabad counterparts were not having it easy either as Diego Mauricio kept them on their toes as he threatened to catch the side on the break. The game is certainly not over as Odisha need just a draw to seal the semis spot.
???? A quality half of football and there’s more to come!

Tied on four points, Odisha and Hyderabad had a headache less in the game as East Bengal earlier on the day went out of the competition after drawing the group’s bottom team Aizawl FC 2-2. The Kolkata Giants outdo themselves after a horrible Indian Super League season as they draw all three games despite taking lead at half time in all of them. The last two games also saw them squander a two-goal lead.
As far as Odisha are concerned, they are at an advantage as a draw for them against Hyderabad on the night will take them through to the semis. That’s because they have a better goal difference (+3) in comparison to Hyderabad’s +1.
Saying that, Odisha’s job is easier said than done as they are up against a formidable side that was built by coach Manolo Marquez over two seasons and saw the comparatively new ISL side become champions in 2022 and a semi-final appearance in the 2023 season after finishing second on the table. Marquez, who will leave the side after this competition as he will take charge of FC Goa, refused to take Odisha lightly.
“I don’t think so. The Super Cup and the ISL are two completely different competitions. Sreenidi (Deccan) beat Kerala Blasters, but drew with Bengaluru FC. East Bengal FC drew against teams that finished higher than them in the league table. So I have no doubt that Odisha will be tough opponents for us in this game,” said the coach as per indiansuperleague.com
“We had just three days to prepare for this game so there is not much that changes. It is similar to the bubble when we have very little time for recovery and we have to be ready again.”
