FULL TIME Mohun Bagan 3-1 DSK Shivajians

90+2' Duffy is put straight on goal but is too tired and the ball is cleared away. Duffy is substituted for Bikramjit

Four minutes of added time

Up against Subrata Pal, captain Yusa comes to the party as he sends the DSK keeper down the wrong way and slots it cooly in the left corner Lovely penalty

89' Katsumi steps up and it is a GOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLL Game Set Match Mohun Bagan

McFaul holds on to Duffy's shirt and should have won a foul much earlier but the latter passes to Jeje, who is brough down by Gourmangi!! STONEWALL PENALTY

86' PENALTY TO Mohun Bagan

85' Jeje comes on for Balwant. The striker has scored a brace but he would be disappointed not to have a hattrick

81' Juan Quero draws a foul from Katsumi on the left side of the box and wins a free kick. He whips the ball in and Majumder cannot punch it away and a couple of headers later, it falls to McFaul who takes a flick but it is wide. DSK Shivajians almost equalise.

80' 10 minutes remaining in the match and DSK Shivajians are still just one goal away from drawing level. The scoreline does not reflect the story of the match as Bagan have been far superior in the second half and should have been leading 4-1, if not for Balwant's profligacy

77' DSK Shivajians get a corner and then Katsumi commits a foul outside the box. Quero takes the freekick but Pronay heads it away. The resultant corner does not yield anything as Jerry blasts a volley high above the goal

76' Sony Norde has seen a lot of the ball in the second half and the result is excellent domination from Mohun Bagan. However, Norde's hard work has not been turned into a goal.

74' Das gets a yellow card for his rash tackle

72' A bit of a lull in the game here as players look a bit jaded. DSK Shivajians, in particular, have not made any decisive chance in the second half.

71' Sajid goes off and Shreshtha comes on for DSK Shivajians

68' Milan and Duffy have a bit of a wrestling match on the flank and the latter wins a free kick, following which the former vents out his frustration.

66' DSK Shivajians are trying to press a little higher now and putting pressure on Bagan, who are looking pretty decisive in possession

63' Managerial masterclass from Sen to bring on Das and employ Katsumi in a central position. Das has been excellent on the flank and allowed Katsumi to be more effective.

60' You have to say that Sony Norde has shown exactly why he is so highly rated by everyone in Indian football. He has been absolutely magical in the second half and has created chances almost on all occasions after getting the ball. Katsumi has been superb as well, controlling the tempo really well

59' ANOTHER CHANCE!!! Balwant Singh seems to have forgotten his finishing shoes in the locker room only as he cannot hit the target. He gets a another clear shot on goal after a beautiful cut back but skies it way above. He will be livid with himself

56' CHANCE!!! How have Bagan not scored till now? Yet another opportunity for Balwant and it is that man Norde again. He threads through a brilliant pass for Katsumi, who squares it to Balwant. The striker controls, takes a couple of touches and blasts it over the top. DSK Shivajians are lucky not to be down by 4-1

55' A bit of a quarrel breaks out there between Gourmangi and Balwant but Subrata intervenes.

53' SAVED!!!! Subrata Pal redeems himself with a lovely save as Mohun Bagan almost score again. Sony Norde shows his class to put Darryl Duffy one on one with the keeper but the latter's shot is weak and Pal saves. Balwant tries to get the rebound away but Pal scrambles on to it

50' DSK have not been able to get a grip on the ball here in the second half and it has been all Bagan in the second half. Sony Norde has been fouled a lot in the match today.

48' Some lovely football from Sony Norde there as he shows slick footwork to get a pass in the circle but it cannot find Balwant, who is currently on a hattrick. Bagan win a corner but Eduardo's header is high above the goal. Bright start from Bagan

47' Mohun Bagan start the second half on the front foot and Katsumi, playing in the centre of midfield, is trying to control the game. The home team is looking good

PEEEPPP

We are back with the live coverage of the second half and are about to be underway

We have seen an exciting half of football with three goals in it and a tremendous turn around in fortunes for the home side, who were looking out of sorts after conceding a goal but bounced right back to put themselves in the driving seat. Can Shivajians get their act back together or will Bagan win? We will find out in just a bit

HALF TIME Mohun Bagan 2-1 DSK Shivajians

45 + 1' Mohun Bagan get a corner and Sony Norde drills a low ball in. NEARLY!! They almost score again but DSK are alert enough

44' What an extraordinary turn around in fortunes here in Kolkata and the home team have their tails up now. Pritam produces another good pass and Balwant shows good athletic ability to produce a lovely finish while falling and slots it past Subrata Pal. The home team are leading.

44' GOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLLLLL Balwant scores again Bagan lead 2-1

43' Subrata Pal makes a horrible return to his former home club and mishandles a cross whipped in from the right, giving Balwant the chance to gobble up and equalise for Bagan

42' GOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLLL Mohun Bagan draw level and it is Balwant Singh

40' Mohun Bagan seem to have lost a bit of rhythm and they have not managed to create any sort of opportunity in the past 10 minutes. DSK Shivajians look quite comfortable at the moment.

36' Substitution Shehnaj SIngh goes out for Prabhir Das

35' This is scintillating football from Juan Quero and he is the architect of the goal. He gets the ball on the left wing and does ever so brilliantly to evade Eduardo and then produces a peach of a pass through for Milan who provides an excellent finishing touch to a wonderful move.

33' GOOOOOOOOOOOOOALLLLLLLLL Milan Singh scores and DSK Shivajians lead

30' Great link-up play between Quero Jerry and Milan just outside the box as they try to pierce the Anas-Eduardo defence combination. Bagan defend well yet again and attack on the counter, which wins them a corner but that is defended well.

28' An extended passage of pressure and possession by DSK SHivajians and their direct passing is causing some sort of trouble to the Bagan defence.

25' Halfway through the first half and there is no sign of a goal coming any soon. Both teams have had their moments and though Bagan have enjoyed more possession, Shivajians have shown great decisiveness while moving forward

22' CHANCE!!! FIrst real chance of the game is created and it is DSK Shivajians who break on the counter and a through ball puts Quero one on one with the keeper but Majumder gives the charge and produces a stunning save. Katsumi is fouled eventually and Bagan survive

20' Yusa Katsumi is looking lively today and he is keeping the DSK Shivajians defence on its toes. He receives the ball close to the box and then let's fly but the shot is deflected away

18' Excellent football from Juan Quero as he evades a couple of defenders and makes a forward run towards the box but is fouled. His free kick is then cleared out by the Bagan defence.

A quarter of an hour has passed here in Kolkata but none of the sides have had a proper chance to score a goal . DSK's defending has been resolute and they have prevented the home side from making any sort of incisions in the box.

15' Jerry shows excellent footwork to induce a foul from Pritam and win a freekick for DSK. The ball is whipped in by Quero but Passi is ruled offside before he can take a concrete shot

13' Mohun Bagan are moving forward consistently but have been a bit indecisive in the final third and DSK's defending has prevented them from creating a concrete chance. However, it will not be long before Bagan knock on DSK's door again

10' Halder with a lovely through ball for Balwant but his cross is intercepted and Bagan get a corner, which is well defended by the away side. No clear cut chances for either team till now

8' Some neat football from DSK Shivajians as they move forward and a through ball for the striker in the box is intercepted by Halder. The resulting corner produces a shot from outside the box by Jerry but it is wide. Shivajians slowly getting into the game here.
