Durand Cup: Group C opens up as Delhi FC and Bengaluru FC play a well contested draw

Willis
Deon
Plaza
scored
a
brace
for
Delhi
FC
while
Siva
Sakthi
N
and
Bidyashagar
Singh
scored
two
for
Bengaluru
FC.
Group
C
is
wide
open
now
with
all
four
teams
having
a
chance
to
advance
to
the
next
stage.

The
first
half
was
a
relatively
quieter
affair
with
both
teams
creating
opportunities
but
failing
to
convert
on
most
occasions.
The
slippery
conditions
at
Mohun
Bagan
did
not
help
either.
However,
in
the
27th
minute,
Siva
Shakti
took
a
brilliant
shot
at
goal
to
put
the
Blues
ahead.

Delhi
FC
played
a
catching
game
post
that.
There
were
some
great
moments
created
by
Willis
Deon
Plaza
and
Himanshu
Jangra
in
the
first
half
but
Bengaluru
keeper
Lara
did
well.

The
second
half
was
an
absolute
turnaround
with
both
teams
looking
all
charged
up.
Delhi
FC
was
the
more
dominant
team
and
in
the
58th
minute,
their
star
player
Willis
Deon
Plaza
scored
the
equalizer,
courtesy
a
brilliant
header.
The
Trinidad
and
Tobago
national
scored
his
second
of
the
game
four
minutes
later.

The
team
from
Delhi
seemed
to
be
running
away
with
the
game
but
Bengaluru’s
Bidyashagar
Singh
had
other
plans.
He
collected
a
well-directed
cross
from
Harmanpreet
Singh,
made
no
mistake
and
scored
the
equalizer,
in
the
final
quarter.

Both
teams
gave
it
their
all
to
go
one
ahead
in
the
final
minutes
but
the
well
fought
match
ended
in
a
draw
with
the
two
sides
earning
a
point
each
deservedly.

Delhi
FC’s
Willis
Deon
Plaza
was
adjudged
the
Man
of
the
Match.
