ISL: ATK Mohun Bagan Avoid Shock Defeat Against 10-Man Hyderabad FC With Late Equaliser | Football News
Trailing twice in a high-pressure clash, leaders ATK Mohun Bagan fought their way back and played out a thrilling 2-2 draw against 10-man Hyderabad FC in the Indian Super League (ISL) in Goa on Monday. Aridane Santana (8′) put Hyderabad up ahead before Manvir Singh (57′) restored parity for ATKMB. The Nizams once again took the lead through substitute Roland Aalberg (75′) before Pritam Kotal (90+2′) found the net late to help Bagan snatch a crucial point.
The result effectively means that Bagan will have to wait for either Mumbai City FC to drop points in their next game or deny the Islanders a win in their last game to secure the League Winners Shield. A win here would have handed Bagan the title.
Hyderabad made a disastrous start to the game as Chinglensana Singh was sent off as early as the fifth minute.
Intercepting a clearance from Odei Onaindia, David Williams raced towards goal with only the keeper to beat before being brought down by Chinglensana outside the box. The center-back was immediately handed his marching orders.
