Mohun Bagan dropped their first points in the I-league this season after being held to a goalless draw by DSK Shivajians at the Balewadi Stadium in Pune on Tuesday.
Bidding to go five points clear at top of the table, Bagan ran into a stubborn Shivajians outfit that prevented the Kolkata giants from mustering any attacking momentum.
Shivajians had the upper hand for much of the game and even had a goal disallowed in the 60th minute as Sasa Kolunija was found to have impeded Bagan’s defenders just as he headed in from Juan Quero’s corner.
Bagan’s best chance came 12 minutes later as Subhashish Bose struck the ball sweetly off Sony Norde’s pin point cross. Unfortunately, the ball could only hit the inside of the post before being cleared by the defence.
Bagan still sit on top of the I-League table on 13 points, while Shivjians occupy sixth place with five points, both teams having played five matches.
The score
- DSK Shivajians 0 drew with Mohun Bagan 0.
