KOLKATA: (May 20) A multi-team battle for the Indian Super League title is set for a dramatic finale with five sides — including traditional heavyweights Mohun Bagan Super Giant and East Bengal FC — mathematically remaining in contention heading into the last round matches across various venues on Thursday.
With the shortened single-leg season producing one of the closest title races in recent years, all eyes will be on simultaneous fixtures involving Punjab FC, Mumbai City FC, East Bengal FC and Mohun Bagan Super Giant.
