The Football Players Association of India (FPAI) organised a memorial match in the name of their former employee, the late Debanjan Sen at the CC&FC Ground on Thursday. Debanjan died in an motorbike accident last year at the age of only 22.
A star-studded FPAI XI took on CC&FC in the Debanjan Sen Memorial Cup 2012, and they were held to a 1-1 draw by the Kolkatans. The CC&FC XI was led by former India skipper and FPAI President Baichung Bhutia, while FPAI General Secretary Jahan Mehta was also part of the Kolkata-side. The FPAI XI opened the score sheet through Dipendu Biswas in the 20th minute, while Jahan Mehta leveled the score just one minute later.
