Darryl Duffy scored twice in the space of six minutes, while Gilbert Olivera smashed home one in the 90th minute as the visitors left Khalid Jamil’s Mumbai FC gasping for breath.
Jayesh Rane was the lone scorer for Mumbai after they were 2-0 down, but that was the only solace for Jamil as Mumbai crashed to its first defeat of the season. The win took Salgaocar to the top of the I-League standings—10 points from 4 matches—as they pushed Bengaluru FC to the No 2 position.
