Bapi Das scored for Kalighat MS in the 43rd minute as Bagan’s overseas recruit Okwy Diamondstar failed to spot him inside the area. Manish Mathani eqalised in the 54th minute with a 20-yard strike and then Chidi raised his game to ensure full points for his side. His first goal came in the 68th minute as he edged past three defenders and placed home with a left-footer. The second goal, in the 86th minute, was also courtesy a clinical finishing. In between, Subair Muritala Ali scored in the 78th minute.

Bagan, however, didn’t impress. Midfield once again failed to control the game and the defence at times looked clueless against Kalighat MS striker Christopher’s speed and precision.
