#3 Akram Moghrabi misses golden opportunity

After the halfway mark, the home side started showing a lot more intent and Faiaz and Kadam, on either flank, continued to be the chief troublemakers. However, the Bagan forwards, especially Akram Moghrabi, were guilty of wasteful finishing.

On one particular occasion, right-back Arijit had run all the way down the right flank, beaten his man and served it on a platter for Akram to slot it in. However, the Lebanese forward, who was completely unmarked in front of the goal, failed to put it past goalkeeper Bilal Khan.

It was by far the easiest chance of the match and Akram really should have put it away. He had wasted a couple of chances just before this and it was no surprise when Shankarlal Chakraborty decided to bring on Bimal Gharti Magar in place of Akram.
