I-League: Gonzalez hat-trick headlines Bagan's 6-2 win over NEROCA
The HinduFrancisco Gonzalez scored a timely hat-trick to help 10-man Mohun Bagan dominate visitor Neroca FC by a resounding scoreline of 6-2 in an I-league fixture at the Kalyani Municipal Stadium here on Friday. Mohun Bagan went a man down in the 60th minute losing Dhanachandra Singh, who was given his marching orders for handling a Ronald Singh effort at the Bagan goalmouth. While Gonzalez was prolific with his finishing, it was Beitia’s ability to locate his teammates with precise passes from set-pieces that helped Mohun Bagan find the biggest win of the season so far. Despite having a numerical disadvantage Mohun Bagan managed the sixth goal which came off Romario, who scored from another Beitia corner right after taking the field in the 69th minute.
