A match of fluctuating fortunes between Bengaluru FC and ATK Mohun Bagan ended in an entertaining 3-3 draw at Athletic Stadium in Bambolim on Thursday.
It was ATK MB which took the lead when Subhasish Bose slotted home from a corner in the 13th minute. BFC equalised a few minutes later, with Cleiton Silva converting from the penalty spot.
A clean header from Danish Farooq, off a corner, gave BFC a 2-1 lead. Just before half-time, ATKMB drew level. Fijian striker Roy Krishna made a great run before passing to Hugo Boumous, who shot past BFC custodian and skipper Gurpreet Sandhu. Boumous was thrilled to break his long barren run with a vital goal. ATK MB regained the lead after Prince Ibara brought Krishna down in the box. A clumsy Ibara shoved the attacker to the floor, leaving the referee with an easy decision.
