36' That was close for MBSG. Really close but Manveer Singh just could not find the target right for his header just outside the left post of the NorthEast United goal post. Not a powerful header and easily collected by the Highlanders goalkeeper Gurmeet Singh.

Meanwhile, yellow card for Muthu Mayakkannan of NorthEast United FC.

38' Blocked yet again. Mohun Bagan continue to be held by the Highlanders. Some really good attacks being made but that finish is not coming for the Mariners. This time it was Greg Stewart who had the chance and he even beat the goalkeeper but the defensive line behind the goalie was alert enough to make the clearance. Good work by NEUFC.

Dinesh Singh too shown the yellow card. Two yellow cards now for NorthEast United.

Half Time!

Mohun Bagan end with a corner but it ends 1-2 with NorthEast United FC being the team in the lead. Aggressive football from both the sides in the first 45 minutes.

NorthEast United were the team who got the lead just in the fifth minute of the match. Bemmamer was the man who gave them the lead from far outside the box with a stunning shot. However, the scores were levelled in the next five minutes with Biswas scoring his first ISL goal ever. Within 10 minutes we had two goals and the scores locked at 1-1. But Ajaraie found the net after a well made counter move for NEUFC in the 24th minute.

Mohun Bagan finished the half on a high but the second equaliser has not come. They have controlled the possession, got more shots but remain behind.

Second half begins!

After three goals in the first 45 minutes, what do we have in store in the second half of the match. MBSG, even though they have been the dominant looking side, continue to struggle to get their seconnd equaliser of the match. Will they find one soon or there is some late drama left in the match? We will know.

52' A little bit of drizzle at the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata and in between here is a shot from NEUFC's Ajaraie from just outside the box but it is off-target to the right. Goal kick for Mohun Bagan.

Mohun Bagan Vs NorthEast United ISL LIVE Score: MBSG 1-2 NEUFC

57' Blocked! Another chance made by Ajaraie but it is pushed clear by the Mohun Bagan goalkeeper Kaith. Ajaraie had made a fantastic run but his pass was taken by a Mohun Bagan player who then made a poor pass back to Ajaraie. A good shot from Ajaraie but right towards the goalkeeper for Kaith to block it away. NEUFC manage a corner but no shot comes out of it.

61' Mohun Bagan Score!!!

Goal given but NorthEast United players are not happy at all. They are sure that it their goalkeeper Gurmeet has been fouled and this should not be given a goal but the referee stands with his call.

Poor goalkeeping from Gurmeet Singh. He perhaps was trying to finger the ball above the goalpost but makes a total mess of it and the ball falls just inches away from the goalline where a melee occurs but the ball finds itself in the goal and it is two all. Shubhashish Bose gets the goal.

74' Three quick corners for Mohun Bagan. They have not been able to get the lead but the home side are consistently looking like the more threatening side now in the second half. NorthEast United need to be more attentive in their defence as the Mariners are on the charge.

Meanwhile, players head for a short drinks break as we are about 15 minutes away from the final whistle.

Mohun Bagan Vs NorthEast United ISL LIVE Score: MBSG 2-2 NEUFC

84' Some poor passing going on in the game as the match enters the final minutes. Some tight defence also on show from the Mohun Bagan side as both the teams go desperate about not conceding any goal from here.

Mohun Bagan Vs NorthEast United ISL LIVE Score: MBSG 2-2 NEUFC

86' Massive chance squandered by Mohun Bagan. Gurmeet just comes out of the box and goes around chasing the ball. The Highlanders defence somehow manages to block attempts at the empty goalpost to deny Mohun Bagan.

Mohun Bagan Vs NorthEast United ISL LIVE Score: MBSG 3-2 NEUFC

87' Mohun Bagan Score!!!

Jason Cummings makes it look so easy doesnt he? Less than three minutes left in the regulation time and he finds the net. As easy as it gets for Cummins and Mohun Bagan are ahead for the first time in the match.

Sahal Abdul Samad with a cross that finds an unmarked Cummings almost in the centre of the box and Cummings makes no mistake. Is that the winner? The fans at the Salt Lake Stadium do think so. They are delighted.

Mohun Bagan Vs NorthEast United ISL LIVE Score: MBSG 3-2 NEUFC

92' It is getting chaotic in the Mohun Bagan's box but NorthEast have not been able to trouble Kaith in the MBSG goalpost. United are desperate to get the equaliser here but Mohun Bagan hold their defences tight so far. We have seven minutes of added time in the match.

There is the whistle! Mohun Bagan have posted their first win of the season and NorthEast United have been handed their first loss but it was as tight as it gets. Jason Cummings' 87th minute strike is the difference in the end after Mohun Bagan had been forced behind twice by the Highlanders. Some desperate attempts in the final few attempts were made by the NorthEast United but none of them good enough to threaten Kaith's goalpost.
