An inspiring performance by Kattimani and Debjit saw Mumbai FC vs Mohun Bagan ending in a stalemate
Struggling side Mumbai FC hosted Mohun Bagan in the HERO I-league clash at Cooperage Stadium on Wednesday evening. The host who is winless in their last six games managed to held Mohun Bagan 0-0 who is yet to lose this season.
Apart 3126 fans, the game was also attended by Indian National Team Coach Stephen Constantine.
The match turned out to be goalkeepers day as both Laxmikant Kattimani and Debjit Majumder produced scintillating saves at both ends to keep their side in the contest.
The first genuine chance came when Mohun Bagan’s talisman Sony Norde powerful shot was tipped off the bar by Kattimani in the 7th minute of the match.
A minute later, Sony’s shot rattled the bar which could have been a superb goal had it gone in. On the other end, it was Debjit Majumder who stood like a wall in front of Mumbai FC’s attackers.
A long-range attempt by Brazilian Alex Silva was brilliant kept out by Mohun Bagan’s custodian in the 16th minute.
Later in the second half, the Mumbai FC number 10 once again saw his shot saved by Debjit’s superb reflexes.
Midway into the first half, Thoi Singh saw his powerful right-footed shot in the back of the net, but the linesman raised the flag for an offside.
Mumbai’s U22 player Farukh Choudhary had an impressive night as he threatened Mohun Bagan’s defence numerous times in the first-half.
The second half was as similar as the first half. Sony and Katsumi linked up brilliantly and created a number of huge opportunities, but couldn’t break Mumbai’s resilience at the back.
Both the sides had to share spoils as the match ended 0-0. For his brilliant saves, Mumbai FC’s Kattimani was handed the man of the match award.
