Hindustan Times  

The highlight of Iftar on Friday evening at Mohammedan Sporting tent, a high-profile affair, was a conversation between club president Amiruddin Bobby and East Bengal executive committee member Debabrata Sarkar. Argentine Alexis Gomes’ goal 50 seconds after kick-off, an outrageous strike from 40 yards, put Mohammedan Sporting ahead but the hosts levelled through Brazilian forward Douglas Tardin’s 15th minute penalty. Three teams – Deccan, former champions Gokulam Kerala and newbies Inter Kashi – have scored more than Mohammedan Sporting’s 43 goals but only one of the 13 teams, Real Kashmir, have conceded less. Our boys stayed strong.” Two seasons ago, Chernyshov’s Mohammedan Sporting had lost their way and Gokulam Kerala won the I-League at Salt Lake stadium.
