Kolkata, August 31, 2019: Mohun Bagan lock horns with Quess East Bengal in season’s first derby on 1st September, 2019. This is going to be the 154th meeting between the two arch rivals in cfl. Mohun Bagan, under new coach Kibu Vicuna had a relatively slow start in cfl when the got beaten in first match and drew the second one. The win against BSS before the derby match will give them necessary impetus. Except Fran Gonzalez who is carrying an injury in knee all three foreigners are fit. The fate of the match depends hugely on how Mohun Bagan defence perform against in form Jaime Colado and Vidyasagar Singh. Coach Kibu Vicuna in pre match press conference mentioned that Mariners are not going to focus on any individual opponent players. He added this is going to be a tough tie and team is ready to take up the challenge. “We need to win it for the supporters” mentioned Kibu. He is concerned with the match kick off time as it starts at 3 PM in the sultry afternoon and is not a good advertisement for prestigious derby.
