The Kolkata Derby comes to an end as Mohun Bagan complete the league derby double over their city rivals. Mohun Bagan put in a commanding performance all over the pitch as East Bengal struggled to get past the organized defence. Dicka's two strikes proved the difference in the match ensuring much-needed three points for the Mariners.
91' - Akram gets into the box and lays it up for Watson to his left who takes a shot but it deflects onto the path of Faiaz but the youngster is unable to bury it.
88' - CHANCE!! A good move on the right flank as Chullova puts in a low cross into the box and Dudu manages to head it but it goes just inches wide...If that would have gone in, we'd have exciting last minutes of the match.
86' - Cameron Watson lays a ball nicely for Nikhil Kadam, who takes his time and crosses in for Moghrabi who takes the header but goes just wide off the goal.
80' - Akram Moghrabi has a lot of time on the ball and he puts in a square ball from the right flank for Nikhil Kadam who rushed in but his effort goes wide to the left of the goal.
73' - Shilton Paul has gone down after a long clearance as he slipped in the process. The physios have rushed in to provide treatment for the custodian.
64' - Lobo plays a great through-ball for Armand who had made the run behind the Bagan defence but keeper Shilton Paul rushes in time to make the collection.
60' - We have reached the hour mark in Kolkata as the score stands 2-0 in favour of Mohun Bagan owing to a brace from Asier Dipanda Dicka. East Bengal are pressing hard for a goal as they aim to make their way back into the match.
57' - Akram wins the ball with a sliding challenge from Armand and puts it ahead for Dicka to chase but Salam Ranjan Singh is alert and does well to reach it and clears it from any danger.
55' - Willis Plaza robs Raynier in the midfield and passes it to Dudu in the box who takes a couple of shots but they are blocked by the Bagan skipper Kinshuk Debnath. Great defending from the Mohun Bagan captain.
50' - Yusa makes a good run on the left flank and cuts inside the box to cross and Rafique manages to get a touch and direct it goalwards but Ricky is there to anticipate and clears the ball.
48' - Khalid Jamil seems to be contemplating his final change of the match early on in the second half as Cavin Lobo is seen warming up on the sidelines.
45' - And we're up and running in the second half in Kolkata as East Bengal aim to overcome a two-goal deficit and Mohun Bagan hope to complete the league double over their fierce rivals.
