TIME- Full Time
That’s the Full Time, Mohun Bagan crash out of the AFC Cup
120’: What a run by Pennant, he’s still got it. Narrowly wide.
120’: The Green and Maroon brigade look down and out, it will be heartbreak for the mariners
118’: Can Mohun Bagan come back again? Long throw by Raju Gaikwad, header by Jeje goes narrowly wide
115’: GOAL!!! Pennant squares the ball to Afiq Yunos.
113’: Arnab has been down for two minutes for cramp.The ref bizarrely books him for time wasting.
110’: The Tampines Rovers are piling on the pressure, Bikramjit going off has been a boon for Tampines.
107’: Yellow Card for a dive for Hafiz Sujat. Fooled me, but not the ref.
106’: Long range effort from Noh Rahman, goes just over the bar.
105’: Corner for the Rovers straight from the kickoff. Cleared by the Mariners.
The players look like they would take Penalties now, the game looks impeccably low on energy, which is not very difficult to understand owing to the humidity.
105+3’: End of first half of extra time.
105+2’: Freekick for Rovers, Arnab looks a step away from a mistake almost all the time.
104’: Lovely run by Subhash Singh, cuts in from the left, delays the cross a little too long. Comes to nothing at the end.
102’: Players are falling like flies, the humidity has caused a lot of cramps.
100’: Kwok Jun on for Fahrudin. Substitution for Tampines Rovers.
98’: Another cross from the right by Tampines, Arnab struggles with it too, thankfully the ref blows for a foul against Arnab.
95’: Corner for Mohun Bagan. Kean to take it. Comes to nothing at the end.
93’: The game has started considerably slower, devoid of any goalmouth action for the last 3 mins.
92’: The players look tired now, sapping conditions at Guwahati.
We are still level at the end of normal time. Extra time to follow, you get the feeling that the Mariners need to take advantage of the Stags being a man down.
90+2’: Corner for the Rovers, headed away, the counter is on. Jeje comes out with the ball, corner for MB.
90+1’: Lewis with the cross, held by the goalkeeper.
90’: Four minutes of added time.
86’: The Rovers are sitting back when Mohun Bagan have the ball, it has to be pin-point pass to get a Bagan player in.
85’: Abhishek Das replaces Tirthankar.
84’: What a run by Pennant, goes past two players, but Debnath with a Captain’s challenge denying the former English U-21 International.
82’: Chance for Afiq, the corner comes to nothing but the ball is recycled and put in the box, he can’t direct his header on target.
80': The Tampines finally managed to string some passes together. Kwok megs Dhana and gets a corner.
79’: Lovely through ball by Subhash Singh, Raju can’t control, cleared again.
77’: Pressure is on from Mohun Bagan. Raju dallies on the ball before crossing for Dhana who look to square it, but cleared from Tampines Rovers defenders.
75’: Raju takes another long throw, can’t clear the first man though.
72’: What a cross field ball by Bikramjit, Tirthankar controls and tries to cross, deflected off.
70’: WHAT A GOAL! Bikramjit picks up the ball, drives forward and shoots from 30 yards out. Goalkeeper gets a hand to it but can’t keep it out.
69’: Corner for Mohun Bagan, Raju’s header straight at the goalkeeper
67': Long throw from Gaikwad. Header from Jeje, WHAT A SAVE by the Goalkeeper. MB piling on the pressure now.
65’: Kwok has slotted straight into the defence.
64’: Fabian Kwok comes on for the goalscorer Jordan Webb. He seemed to be suffering from cramp since the goal.
64’: Souvik on for Lenny. Substitution for Mohun Bagan.
62’: GOALLL!!!! Jordan tries to cross from the right, Arnab makes a royal mess of the cross, gets caught underneath the ball. Huge mistake by the Goalkeeper.
58’: Jordan and Pennant have to be given less time and space, as we have seen in the FA Cup Final, ten men doesn't mean you win.
57’: The pattern of the game has changed since the sending off, MB seeing more of the ball now.
56’: What a run by Subhash Singh, goes past two players and shoots on the first bar, well saved by Mahbud.
55’: Subhash Singh has also been cautioned for MB.
54': Red Card! Second Yellow Card for Shakir Hamza in a matter of 4 mins.
52’: Corner taken by Pennant. great block for Kinshuk for MB/
50’: Lovely turn by Kean Lewis on the right, at the brilliant run, brought down at the edge of the box. Yellow Card for Hamza.
48’: The Might Stags on the front foot again, through ball well cut out by Sabrosa.
47’ : Long throw by Dhana Singh, cleared, Pennant comes out with the ball, fouled by Dhana.
45’: We kick-off for the second half.
In the absence of three of their premier overseas players, Mohun Bagan looks a bit short of inspiration in the attack . Pennant has looked good for the Mighty Stags and looks like the most likely to break the deadlock.
