The draw took Dempo SC to 54 points from 25 matches \u2013 beyond the reach of any other club. They play their last match against Kolkata\u2019s Prayag United at the Salt Lake Stadium on May 5 and would be presented the Champions Trophy on the day.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, Kingfisher East Bengal who still have two more matches left, move to 45 points from 24 matches.<\/p>\n<p>In a match which was essentially a must win for East Bengal, visiting coach Trevor Morgan fielded a three-man attack consisting of Tolgay Ozbey, Robin Singh and Edmilson Marques. But while East Bengal created several chances, none of the strikers could deliver the goal that they needed to stay in the hunt for the crown.<\/p>\n<p>East Bengal\u2019s best chance of the half, and then the match, fell at the feet of Brazilian striker Edmilson marques in the 30th minute when goalkeeper Subhashish roy Chowdhury\u2019s intended ball to defender Cressan Antao was snatched by Edmilson but with only the goalkeeper to beat, the Brazilian shockingly picked up the side post.<\/p>\n<p>Tolgay was also presented with an opportunity but the Australian striker at first could not give finishing touches to a brilliant through ball from Mehtab Hossain.<br \/>Tolgay had another chance just before the change of ends but he was pulled up for a dive when claiming for a penalty.<\/p>\n<p>Dempo shut the doors in the second session and didn\u2019t allow East Bengal too many opportunities to have a look at the goal. Substitute Sanju Pradhan\u2019s intended cross sailed just over the bar and Edmilson, again, was wasteful when he directed his header wide from handshaking distance.<\/p>\n<p>Dempo\u2019s best chance of the half came from a free kick which Ranty Martins executed well but only ended hitting the crossbar.<\/p>\n<p>\u00a0<\/p>\n<p><strong>By Indian Sports News Network<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Madgaon: Dempo SC made history when they won the I-League crown for a record fifth time on Friday (April 20) as they held Kolkata\u2019s Kingfisher East Bengal to a goalless draw.
