Barreto celebrated his first appearance since the historic win against rivals East Bengal by scoring a goal from penalty in a Friendly match against WBP. With a classy hattrick from suraj Mandal Mohun Bagan brushed aside WBP 6-0 on tuesday afternoon. A few days earlier, Barreto was injured and missed almost a month of the season. However he seemed extremely fit and well this afternoon, firing home a low shot from penalty.

 Chiddi and Sueoka also poached a goal each after the 1st interval. The flood of goals opened up somewhat after the 1st interval as Bagan scored 2 goals but after the second interval Suraj added 3 more to Bagan’s tally. The final score read 6-0.

It was a very straightforward win for Bagan. Bagan’s goal-hungry season continues.
