Jamshedpur FC players celebrate scoring against Odisha FC. [Credits: ISL]

Jamshedpur FC blew away Odisha FC to record a 5-1 win in the ISL earlier tonight.

Daniel Chukwu scored with a header after Greg Stewart's free-kick hit the crossbar before finding the net again three minutes later with a lethal finish. Paul Ramfangzauva, who was at fault for the second Red Miners goal, then halved the deficit with a decent shot that slipped through TP Rehenesh.

However, that was the only respite for the Juggernauts as Ritwik Das scored in the 54th minute to make it 3-1. Substitutes Jordan Murray and Ishan Pandita also found the net either side of Jonathas de Jesus' red card.

The victory puts Jamshedpur FC three points clear at the top of the standings and in prime position to claim the League Winners' Shield.

On that note, here are the player ratings from the match:

Jamshedpur FC

TP Rehenesh - 6/10

Rehenesh should've saved Odisha FC's goal, especially after getting a palm on it. He wasn't tested much otherwise.

Ricky Lallawmawma - 6.5/10

Lallawmawma had a steady outing in defense, making two interceptions and two tackles, but didn't do much going forward.

PC Laldinpuia - 6/10

Laldinpuia could've cleared the ball better in the build-up to Odisha FC's goal but was hardly threatened otherwise.

Eli Sabia - 6.5/10

Sabia helped Jamshedpur FC see out the occasional pressure from the Juggernauts, making five clearances and two interceptions. He also won three of his five duels.

Laldinliana Renthlei - 7/10

Renthlei was solid in defense and did a good job going forward as well. He had one shot that went just over the crossbar and eventually got the assist for Jamshedpur FC's fifth goal with a neat cut-back.

Alex Lima - 7/10

While those in front of him stole the limelight, Lima quietly ran the show from midfield. He constantly broke up Odisha FC's attacks, making four tackles, while also putting his creativity on display by recording two key passes.

Pronay Halder - 6/10

Halder didn't really leave an impact on this game and won just one of his eight ground duels. He was dribbled past a team-high four times and made an extremely weak tackle to allow Ramfangzauva to get past him for Odisha FC's goal.

Ritwik Das - 7/10

Das took his goal well after collecting Stewart's lob over the top brilliantly. He nodded it down before firing a side-footer to extend Jamshedpur FC's lead. Das also won two fouls and five ground duels in a thorough display.

RITWIK TAKES US EVEN FURTHER! 🔥

A beautiful lobbed assist by Greg Stewart over the defence is finished with a stunning first touch followed by a smooth bottom corner finish by our young winger. 👊⚡

Let's aim for more ⚽ ladsss!

Greg Stewart - 9/10

Stewart may not have scored but was involved in four of his side's five goals. His free-kick drew a save from Kamaljit Singh and hit the crossbar before it was put in by Chukwu. Stewart then sent a beautifully-lobbed assist for Das' goal and supplied the cut-back for Jordan Murray's goal.

He rounded it all off by hitting the woodwork a second time and finding Renthlei in space for Jamshedpur FC's fifth goal. Stewart's stat sheet at the end read: two shots on target, two against the post, four key passes and one big chance created.

The Scot is arguably the best player in the ISL right now by a distance.

Seiminlen Doungel - 6.5/10

Doungel was integral in the buildup to Murray's goal as he kept Sahil Panwar from reaching the ball. He also supplied a key pass and won nine of his 15 duels in a decent display.

Daniel Chukwu - 8.5/10

This was the performance of a striker in good nick, brimming with confidence. Chukwu showed incredible instincts to head home from the rebound following Stewart's free-kick. He then did well to win the ball high up the pitch and scored with a fantastic finish to make it 2-0 to Jamshedpur FC.

Chukwu was also excellent with his link-up play, recording two key passes.

💪 ANOTHER ONE IN QUICK SUCCESSION 💪

CHIMA MAKES IT 2️⃣ FOR HIMSELF AND 2️⃣ FOR US IN UNDER 2️⃣ MINUTES! 👊⚽⚽

Ishan Pandita - 7/10

Pandita came on for Doungel with 12 minutes to go. He took his goal brilliantly, scoring with a clinical finish from Renthlei's cross.

Anas Edathodika - N/A

Edathodika came on for Stewart in the 88th minute. He didn't have much to do with his side being in a comfortable position.

Boris Singh Thangjam - N/A

Thangjam replaced Renthlei in the 88th minute. He was involved in a couple of moves but didn't have enough time to make an impact.
