Bhubaneswar: Riding on a late strike by Dudu Omagbeni, East Bengal defeated FC Goa 1-0 to reach final of Super Cup final in Kalinga Stadium on Monday.
East Bengal’s midfielder Mahmoud Al Amna missed the first chance in the 19th minute, but he failed to tap in a cross. A minute later Dudu broke free from an Al Amna flicked header which was saved by goalkeeper Laxmikant Kattimani.
Goa’s Katsumi Yusa then missed two chances in the 33rd and 35th minutes.
In the 78th minute, a cross from the left flank by Katsumi found Dudu who tapped past the nets.
“I was very worried about this match. FC Goa had five players suspended and I was very much hoping that we convert early. We had our chances but weren’t able to put it in,” said Khalid Jamil, coach East Bengal.
East Bengal will now play the winners of Mohun Bagan and JSW Bengaluru FC in the finals.
