Indian Super Cup 2018: Mohun Bagan vs Churchill Brothers 5 Talking Points 

#3 Cagey first half, more open second half

Bagan keeping their head cool

The game started off in a cagey manner with both the teams looking to play a safe brand of football and not concede early. Both the teams made a lot of miss passes and couldn’t keep possession of the ball for long periods. Both the teams went into the lemon break tied on 1-1 when Bagan equalised through a Dicka penalty rebound after Plaza had given the Red Machines the lead in the 30th minute.

Both the teams came into the second half sensing a victory, but as the Bagan midfielders Cameroon Watson and Yuta Kinowaki started controlling the midfield Bagan started getting an upper hand in the game, and it showed in the scoreline also as Bagan went ahead through a Dicka goal. They also started creating more chances compared to the team from Goa, and the quality in both the teams was showing.

Churchill kept troubling the Bagan defence and had two brilliant chances to win the game in the dying moments of the game only to see both the efforts go agonisingly wide of the mark.
