It has a been a fatal January month. I am proud of this team. They did everything. We won something today. We are getting ready for the knockouts for sure. We did not have many players to change," Gerard Zaragoza said in post-match presentation. 

The final effort from Sunil Chhetri was blocked by the Green and Maroon wall. 

Mohun Bagan stay at the top of the table. Bengaluru FC had the chance, but they have only themselves to blame. 

Apuia wins the player of the match but it was Liston Colaco's worldie which helps them win the full point in Kolkata.

Dimi Petratos took a chance with a left-footed shot from the left of the box. It went right of the goal though. 

Bheke's flying header goes over the goal. Chance went begging for them from the corner. 

He had to be accurate there. 

It was inside the box and he tackled Williams. 

Petratos replaces MacLaren. 

5 minutes have been added as injury time.

Liston Colaco has scored in 17 ISL games for Mohun Bagan SG. 

They have not lost in any of those games.

Chhetri looks for Williams from outside the box with a popped up ball. 

But it is too long for him.

Easy grab for Kaith as Mendez tried to whip in a cross from the right to cause issue.

Liston and Greg, the goal scorer and assist provider have been replaced by Jason Cummings and Ashique Kuruniyan.

WORRRRLLLLLLDDDDDDD CLASSSSSSS!

This man has the whole Kolkata on their feet. 

Bose with the cross and Greg's shot was partially negotiated by Bheke. 

The clarence went straight to Liston, who volleyed the ball straight into the goal from 20 yards away.

World Class!

Mohun Bagan 1-0 Bengaluru FC

The Aussie striker was seen taking some pointers on the byline. Surely a few changes coming.

Nikhil Poojary did well to first keep the ball in play and then send a cross for Sunil to head the ball. 

However, Dippendu had marked down Sunil to clear out the ball.

Brilliant football from Mohun Bagan.

Long ball from Kaith and Liston Colaco had beaten Nikhil Poojary to find McLaren at the top of the box.

However, the Australian chose to give it to Greg Stewart, who slipped on the ground while taking the shot. 

Liston Colaco from the middle of the box, had a clear view of the goal. 

But, Sana came in between to make the block.

Greg's corner fell on to the feet of Liston at the far post, whose lobbed ball was not grabbed clearly by Gurpreet.

This led but a few shots inside the box. But, at last, it was safe for BFC. 

Manvir's cross from right was closed down by Roshan. Corner for Mohun Bagan. Greg to take it

Another save from Kaith. This time it was Capo, who made an entry inside the box and went for a shot with his right-foot. 

But, easy for last year's Golden Glove winner. 

Mendez's looping header was deflected away for a corner by Kaith. 

Nikhil with the popped up ball for Mendez to go for the header. 

Following a free-kick, which was deflected for a corner by Apuia, BFC have won another corner.

But, they could not take advantage of that.

This has been the case whenever the ref. has given a foul. 

Apuia fouled Mendez and Bengaluru FC players went at the referee demanding a card. 

Mohun Bagan are back at their best with a hat-trick of corners. 

Tangri's header was deflected by Gurpreet but in rest of the two corners, Mohun Bagan could not do that much.

Excellent from Bheke to come between the cross from Manvir and McLaren. He deflects the ball for a corner.

No changes from either teams.

Not that much in the first half in Kolkata.

Mohun Bagan failed to make things happen for them. However, Bengaluru kept on pressing throughout the 45 minutes.

Sunil Chhetri had the best chance of the game so far, at the stroke of half-time. But, the former Indian captain was not on target. 

We might see a few changes from Mohun Bagan in the second half. 

Stay tuned.

The best chance of the game for sure. 

Huge miss from Sunil Chhetri. 

Sana to Noguera, who found Chhetri inside the box, After a good first touch, Sunil missed the target narrowly. 

Gerard Zaragoza did not the like the tackle from Tangri on Noguera and he jumped out of the technical area.

The ref. had to go at him and have a word with him.

Pushing for the opener 🫡⚡️

Chance for BFC as Suresh tried to whip in a cross from right. Poor from Mohun Bagan to allow that. 

Mohun Bagan looking to press now with Manvir and Liston on the flanks helping Greg and McLaren in the middle. 

A counter attack from the Mariners allowed Greg to find McLaren with a through ball. 

However, McLaren's cross from right was too not accurate for Liston to go for the side-footed shot. 

A few seconds later, Greg's effort from close range was easily saved by Gurpreet.

BFC are doing really well to not give any space and chance to Mohun Bagan run the game. 

The speed, energy and press has been higher from the Bengaluru FC. 

But, can they find the goal?

Bose gets the yellow card. 

Noguera with a cheeky pass for Williams to go for the goal with his left foot. 

Kaith dived to his left to make the save. However, luckily for him, though the ball popped out of his hands, it did not cause any harm.

Greg initiated the attack but he could not get through Nikhil and Alberto went for the shot which was deflected for a corner. 

The team India players went against each other at the corner of BFC box. But, Poojary won the physical battle to win the ball back from Liston.

Manvir, after a good run on the right flank, went for a cut back and was expecting Greg to make the run to receive the pass. 

However, no one was there from Mohun Bagan to accept that the ball.

For sure, the visitors looked the better team, going more forward and having shots at the goal in the first 20 minutes. 

Mohun Bagan with 1 touch in the opposition box in the first 20 minutes, sums up the story for you. 

Sunil Chhetri caught the Mohun Bagan defenders off-guard as he made a quick turn and went for the goal with a right-footed shot. 

However, he was not on target.

Deepak Tangri goes down on the ground as he hit his feet on the ground while clearing a ball. 

Nikhil Poojary fouled Liston Colaco and the Mohun Bagan captain did not like that. 

They both went each other. The Indian teammates are lighting the fire this fixture needs.

Chance for Mohan Bagan as Jamie McClaren tried to put a cross from right. However non from the green and maroon camp was there to receive his cross.

Apuia chest-trapped the ball in their half and the ball ended up on Suresh's feet.

He took a chance with his right-foot from a long range. But, it was not on target.

Early yellow card for Apuia for a foul on Noguera. However, the referee put his card into his pocket. No card. 

The visitors have looked the better side within the first 6 minutes.

They have made a few final third entries. But, Dippendu has been good too, winning battles against Chhetri and company.

Noguera needs to careful here. This is now his second foul in 90 seconds. 

Mohun Bagan captain is injured in their half, after Noguera clashed against him. Free-kick for Bagan!`

Here we GO in Kolkata!

We are at the Mecca of Indian Football. 

Mohun Bagan are in their Green and Maroon. Bengaluru FC in their Pink kit.
