Spanish defender Tiri, who scored an unfortunate own goal in the 8th minute, redeemed himself in the 70th minute pulling one back for the Islanders.
A late equaliser by Thaer Krouma proved to be a shock for the Mariners, as the ISL cup winners managed to steal one point, thereby frustrating the defending champions of the ISL shield who gave away their lead in the match.
Tumbbad, a Bollywood movie released in 2018, has again captured the hearts of its audience with its re-release, and the debate is raging as to why this folk horror movie was overlooked as India’s official entry to the Oscar.

The opening of 86 runs off only 36 balls from Australia set up the platform for a comfortable victory, wherein Short becomes a spotlight for coming matches.
