What Happened

Robson Robinho, a key player for Mohun Bagan Super Giant (MBSG), suffered an injury during the inaugural match of the 2025-26 Indian Super League season against Kerala Blasters. Despite his injury, MBSG secured a convincing 2-0 victory, with goals from Jamie Maclaren and Tom Aldred.

Why It Matters

Robinho, who joined MBSG from EC Agua Santa, has made a significant impact in South Asian football, previously winning seven trophies with Bashundhara Kings and scoring 64 goals in 97 appearances. His performance in the match included several attempts on goal, indicating his importance to the team’s offensive strategy. The injury raises concerns for coach Sergio Lobera and fans regarding the team’s depth and adaptability in the ongoing season.

What’s Next

As MBSG begins its title defense, the team will need to assess Robinho’s injury status and determine how to adjust their tactics moving forward. The upcoming matches will be crucial for maintaining momentum in the league, especially if Robinho’s absence is prolonged.
