East Bengal vs Bengaluru FC Highlights ISL: EBFC 3-3 BFC At Full-Time | Anton Sojberg’s Late Strike Salvages Draw For Bangal Brigade

Crazy scenes from Salt Lake Stadium! EBFC are currently placed 3rd in the points table! 

GOOOOAL!! Would you believe it?!! East Bengal have scored again! Anton Sojberg with a chance from inside the box, scores past Gurpreet to make it 3-3!!! It’s full-time and the Red and Gold Brigade manages to salvage a draw and keep themselves in the title race! 

Here’s a look at Williams’ goal! 

Here’s a look at Saul’s goal! 

7 minutes have been added on for stoppages! Can EBFC draw the game? 

CHANCE FOR East Bengal! It was a brilliant cross delivered into the box but Saul failed to get onto it properly as the shot went over the bar! Another chance goes begging for the home side! 

We are into the last 5 minutes of the game as BFC held onto their lead. Anton Sojberg came close from just outside the box but it was hit straight to the keeper. EB need to take their chances seriously from here on!

GOOAL!! Bengaluru FC score!! Ryan Williams rounds up Gill and just manages to squeeze it into the back of the net. The visitors lead again! This was coming! You are never safe with 10 men! 

East Bengal introduce three fresh legs in the game- Rakip, Sojberg and Nandhakumar come. Will this change make an impact? Specially Nandhakumar, who has scored as a sub in the last two matches. 

Quite naturally BFC press forward after that goal. East Bengal dropping back with 10 men as they defend for their life. But they can’t do it on a regular basis. If they want to win, they will need to break on the counter. 

GOOOOAL!! East Bengal make it 2-2!! Saul with a thunderous effort that found the bottom corner! The Spaniard’s first-time effort hit the defender before it came back to his feet and on the second attempt he didn’t disappoint! GAME ON! 

East Bengal pushing men forward with only 10 players! Bipin Singh has a crack from outside the box but it’s shot was hit straight to the BFC keeper. 

We are back for the second-half! Like we said, EBFC have a big task in hand. It is difficult but not impossible. Can the home side make a comeback in the game? 

Here’s a look at the Anwar Ali’s goal…

That’s it! It’s half-time! East Bengal and Bengaluru go into the break with the latter leading by a slender lead. BFC took the lead through Ashique Kuruniyan before Anwar Ali made it 1-1. Miguel was red carded and things changed drastically as BFC scored again to make it 2-1. EBFC have a mountain to climb with 10-men in the second-half. 

5 minutes have been added on for stoppages! 

GOOOAL!!! Bengaluru FC Score again!!! Suresh Wangjam latched onto a mistake from Gill and EBFC trailing without Miguel concede again!! The visitors take the lead and now it will be very difficult for the home side to get back in the game! 

Here’s a look at Kuruniyan’s goal! 

The game has slowed a bit and and East Bengal look under confident without their main midfielder Miguel. Let’s see what they can come up with in the coming minutes. 

Miguel has been red carded! It is one of those bizarre dismissals you will ever see! A huge spat has now been broken between the two teams as Miguel before leaving the field fired the ball in frustration towards the BFC dug out. 

GOOOAL!! East Bengal are back in the game!! Anwar Ali latches onto a free ball from a corner and with a brilliant bicycle kick he nets it in!! GAME ON FROM HERE ON!! 

Chance for Ezzejjari! He gets a heavy touch and out it goes for a goal-kick as Sana closes the angle for the Spaniard to have a crack. As we speak, BFC once again launched it forward and Sibille commits a foul and earns a yellow card. 

Nothing special happened from the free-kick and GOAAAL!! Seconds after this incident, Ashique Kuruniyan receives the ball just outside the box as BFC launch a long-ball and the winger smashed it into the top corner of the net to break the deadlock! WHAT A STRIKE! EBFC trail early on! 

The tempo of the game is slow as of now. But with able attackers in both the sides, we should expect goal galore. East Bengal win a free-kick following a foul on Edmund. 

India legend Sunil Chhetri is playing his 192nd match in the ISL. He happens to be the joint-most capped player in the Indian league now. 7 minutes into the game and Bengaluru are enjoying possession more as they look for an early break. 

East Bengal off to a lively start as they push men forward to hit BFC early in the counter. They know what they are expected and will leave no stone unturned. 

The match is underway in Kolkata! East Bengal get the ball rolling! The home side will be banking on their players in form to extend the winning run! 

Last minute preparations before the big clash! 

Back home after 21 days! 

Bengaluru FC’s away record is exemplary! Can East Bengal win tonight? 

Bengaluru FC have also announced their XI! They have a better squad on paper with the likes of Gurpreet, Chhetri, Bheke, Williams and Kuruniyan

East Bengal have announced their playing XIs! Youssef Ezzejjari and Souvik Chakraborti starts tonight

Duels to look out for!

The Blues In The House! 

Coach Oscar Bruzon makes his presence felt ahead of the big match! 

East Bengal FC will be without captain Naorem Mahesh Singh, who is ruled out for the rest of the season due to injury. Meanwhile, Bengaluru FC have no major injury concerns or suspensions heading into this crucial encounter.

The rivalry between East Bengal FC and Bengaluru FC has been evenly contested. In 20 meetings, East Bengal have won 10 times, while Bengaluru have 8 wins, with 2 matches ending in draws.

This tight record highlights how competitive the fixture is. With both sides level on points and aiming to climb the table, another closely fought encounter is likely.

Bengaluru FC have had an up-and-down season. Despite a strong start, inconsistency has crept in since Pep Munoz took charge, highlighted by a disappointing 2-1 defeat to Kerala Blasters FC.

Currently fifth with 14 points, they remain in contention but can’t afford further slip-ups. Defensive lapses, exposed in their last outing, will be a concern against an in-form East Bengal FC attack.

Bengaluru will aim to respond strongly, relying on tighter defending and improved game management. While the squad has quality, finding consistency remains their biggest challenge ahead of this crucial away fixture.
