Mohun Bagan split points with Salgaokar. Bagan was leading 1-0 in the first half as Odafa got past Salgaokar defense and scored in the 23rd minute. But Karim’s dressing room coaching helped Salgaokar to come back in the game from beginning of second half. Ishfaq sprint in the 46th minute earned Salgaokar the goal.

Team Mohun Bagan would move to Goa on 12th April for the last “away” game of the season – against Salgaocar. Odafa Okolie – who’s nursing ankle injury stayed away from the practice on 11th April, but is part of the team. The ace striker badly needs some medical attention but the team requires his service for the remaining three games of the season. Jewel, Masih, Bhargav, Chettry are injured as well. The team for Goa includes Shilton, Sangram, Kingshuk, Surkumar, Masih, Dhanarajan, Subhasish, Snehasish, Manish Bhargav, Souvik, Nabi, Sunil, Odafa, Barreto, Ashim, Lima, Jewel and Pradeep,

Rakesh Masih can partner Kingshuk in the defense in absence of Anwar. If he can’t then Subhasish will be the make shift stopper. Nabi and Sur are expected to be the two backs against Salgaokar. Lima and Ashim might operate from the two flanks with Barreto and Jewel as the central midfielders. Sunil can be the liaison between Odafa and the midfield.

Meanwhile IFA can put Bagan’s last game of the season against Prayag United at Siliguri. There is still a possibility that Bagan wins the Kolkata Premiere League if they win at least a point against Prayag and East Bengal go down against Mohammedan Sporting. However Bagan fans and supporters won’t be able to make it to Siliguri in flocks to cheer the team thanks to the whims of IFA.

Jose Barreto and Sunil Chettry showed their worth against Shillong Lajong. Alas – its too late and Bagan – 3 weeks back- iLeague contender – is now out of the race. Had Barreto and Sunil showed their worth in last 3 games- Bagan could have still be chasing the topper Dempo!

Bagan scored 6 goals today. Nabi scored the first one from a through by Barreto. Nabi got the control over the ball and made no mistake in scoring a neat goal. Barreto showed his worth and had another through for Sunil who made no mistake in scoring the second goal for Bagan.

Odafa then scored the 3rd goal by placing the ball on the left of the goalie who was expecting the ball to his right. Later Odafa bulldozed into ajong box and dribbled past 7 players to score his second.

Sunil was fouled in ajong box and Barreto converted the penalty to a goal.

Sunil scored again later by swarving the ball into the net from the edge of th box.

However Subhash Singh scored when Bagan defense failed to clear a ball.
