Hindustan took the 1-0 lead in the 27th minute with Sovan, who capitalised on a re-bound off City’s goalkeeper Mohsin Khan. City came close to equalising in the dying minutes of the game but Hindustan’s defender Manitombi cleared the ball from goal-line.

Both teams were reduced to 10 men in the 65th minute after referee Hari Chand gave marching orders after the players came to blows.
