Navi Mumbai, May 17 (Ians) Atk Mohun Bagan Fc held West Ham United Fc to a 1-1 draw in a closely contested clash of the Reliance Foundation presents Premier League Next Generation Cup at the Reliance Corporate Park (Rcp), here on Wednesday.
The third-place occupants of the recently-concluded Reliance Foundation Development League (Rfdl) were within touching distance of taking away three points from this game. However, a late goal by the Hammers’ substitute Favour Fawunmi ensured that the incumbent Fa Youth Cup champions walked away with a point from this game.
The Mariners started off positively as they didn’t peg back and took the game to the opposition right from the beginning. They were organised enough to thwart attacks at the back and regularly made inroads into the West Ham defence by initiating some incisive passing patterns through the middle.

Kolkata, Feb 26 (Ians) Atk Mohun Bagan head coach Juan Ferrando was happy with his side’s performance as the Mariners registered a 2-0 win against East Bengal Fc in the Kolkata Derby in the Indian Super League (Isl), at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan, here.

The Red and Gold Brigade came close to scoring, but it was Dimitri Petratos’ goal in the dying moments of the match that secured the three points for the Mariners.

Kolkata, Feb 25 (Ians) Atk Mohun Bagan produced a dominant 2-0 win against East Bengal Fc at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan here on Saturday to keep up their unbeaten Kolkata Derby record in the Indian Super League (Isl) and confirm a third-placed finish in their final league game of the 2022-23 season.
It was Atkmb who were ahead for much of the first half. The opening five minutes involved a lot of attacking moves on their part, although none resulted in any substantial scoring opportunities.
Pritam Kotal came closest when a ball was chipped to him at the far post after a corner, but the defender sent his volley over the bar, reports Isl.
East Bengal Fc’s first shot on goal was a long-range effort from Suhair VP that Vishal Kaith gathered with ease. Most of the Torch Bearers’ forward moves were limited to counter attacking ones as Atkmb kept control of the possession.
