Vishnu does well to thread a pass to Felicio, who shows good strength to shield the ball. With no way out, he passes the ball backwards to Cleiton, who swings a cross inside the box, hoping to find Suhair.

Roy Krishna looks to pull the trigger from inside the East Bengal box but he goes down after Suhair barges into him.

Tell you what, Suhair was quite late with his challenge there and he is lucky to have escaped with no punishment.
- February 29, 2024 19:376’ OFC 0-1 EBFC
Vishnu looked favourite to win the second ball in midfield and he did. He looks to make a clear run at goal but is stopped in his tracks by Delgado. East Bengal wins a foul.
