25' MCFC 1-0 EBFC
All of East Bengal’s attacks seem to be stemming from Bipin as he curls another cross in from the right side of the box. This time, it looks like it could dip underneath the crossbar, and Lachenpa dives backwards in an attempt to keep the ball out.
It is a goal kick in the end, but Lachenpa is on the floor, clutching his shoulder after hitting the ground hard.
