Chakraborty continues a trend

Mohun Bagan have by now established a trend whereby one member of their starting eleven almost inevitably gets replaced even before the first half has ended.

Sanjoy Sen used to do it regularly and his successor Shankarlal Chakraborty has not shied away from it. He did it again, when he yanked off Azharuddin Mullick for Bimal Magar in just the 34th minute.

It is usually one of the wingers who gets replaced and today it was Mullick. An additional reason for his withdrawal was probably his horrendous miss from close range when presented with a goal-scoring chance earlier in the half.
