After threatening for large parts of the first half, East Bengal were finally rewarded for their persistence. It stemmed from a set piece. Gurpreet Singh failed to effectively clear the corner kick and it fell to Kromah who had his back towards goal.

Under tremendous pressure from all sides, East Bengal's striker pulled off a Cristiano Ronaldo, scoring a sublime bicycle kick past Bengaluru's keeper who was caught in no man's land. That was Kromah's first goal for East Bengal. The Liberian joined the Kolkata giants this year.

In the larger scheme of things, EB deserved their lead. It's not every day that a team dominates Bengaluru FC and today, the men in gold and red thoroughly outplayed their opponents in the opening half.
