I Would Tell My Dad That I Beat His Team, Says Kiyan Nassiri Giri On His Kolkata Derby Heroics
Whilst he goes about cementing a spot in the starting XI, Kiyan made heads turn in January 2022, when he scored a hat-trick against East Bengal FC to help the Mariners to a victory in the famous Kolkata Derby in the ISL. His father Jamshid has a special association with East Bengal FC, having won the Federation Cup, and the IFA Shield amongst other top honours with the Red & Gold Brigade back in the 1980s.
For Kiyan, who joined Mohun Bagan as a youth star in 2019 and has steadily worked his way up to become an important member of the first team, finding his calling for their arch-rivals against the same team surely made heads turn within the family. Having come on as a substitute for Deepak Tangri, Kiyan struck thrice in the last 30 minutes to become the youngest hat-trick scorer in ISL history.
