“I was there sitting in the Mohun Bagan stands with my wife. Like in any derby game, there were chaos and once the red card happened, the fans got angry and started throwing missiles in the ground. But what was shocking and I have it recorded that the police were throwing back missiles at the crowd. Then they were going up into the stands and attacking fans randomly.
“These things happen all over the world but nowhere does the police deal with the situation in this way. I can completely understand their (Mohun Bagan’s) refusal to play because one of their players were hurt and there was a fight between their fans and police,” Fearon stated.
Could be something he said as well. Their are many things that, when confronting a referee, can warrant a red card. That is why you should be careful when talking to them.
30 minutes in: Pune FC need to find an attack soon because Salgaocar is killing them at the moment. Salgaocar just lack a goal however. Still 0-0 but dont be surprised if that number changes for Salgaocar by HT. This crowd of a confirmed 5,000 crickets will be in for one hell of a game.
@kid. Sorry to say this, but if you find this game boring, that means you did not watch the great derby. That match was dismal. This one is much better.

I did not. I overslept. The EB vs MB match was on at around 4:30 in the morning in America. I woke up at 7.
35 minutes in: ALMOST! Brilliant jumping header by Nabeel but straight into the hands of Mondal. Salgaocar should be up 1-0. They need a striker. I bet they are wanting for Rooney now.

And that is why blame should not be with Bagan themselves. THEIR PLAYER WAS HIT WITH A STONE FOR GODS SAKE!!!
He was arguing with his hand near the ref face, but he did not hit the ref. The picture is not conclusive.
A fellow English Man who was sitting beside also got hurt during this lathi charge by the police in row 4
