After falling prey to Rajasthan United FC in their tournament opener, the Mariners were desperate for three points to secure their stay in the tournament. Their opponents, Mumbai City FC, wanted to add to their win against the Indian Navy FT and continue to be on top of the table. The Mariners were fielded in a 3-4-3 formation by Juan Ferrando as newly recruited Vishal Kaith made it to the starting line-up for the first time since joining the outfit. The defense consisted of Pritam Kotal and Subhasish Bose on either side of Florentin Pogba. The midfield comprised of Carl McHugh and Deepak Tangri, flanked by Asish Rai and Ashique Kuruniyan. Liston Colaco and Hugo Boumous, alongside Joni Kauko, led the team's forward line. The Islanders started without Jorge Pereyra Diaz. Greg Stewart led the attack with Vikram Pratap Singh and Bipin Singh flanking the Scotsman. Ahmed Jahouh was included in the starting XI.

For most of the first half, ATK Mohun Bagan looked to dominate Mumbai City FC, who sat back waiting for an error on the opposition's part. Their dominance was rewarded when Asish Rai's pace caught the defense napping. The full-back drilled his shot low onto the path of Phurba Lachenpa, who failed to get it under his control. The rebound was met by Colaco, who blasted it into the net.
