Striker Thanglalsoun Gangte netted in the 51st and 59th minutes to win the match for India. Bangladesh pulled one back through a Mirajul Islam penalty in the 62nd minute.

Both teams created several chances in the first half but were unable to convert them. However, India came out strong after the change of ends and soon took the lead.

Five minutes after the resumption striker Gangte, who was lurking around the opposition box, received it just outside the area. He was closed down quickly but the striker delectably finished it to the right of the goalkeeper.

The lead was doubled seven minutes later off a brilliant counterattack. After thwarting an attack, the move began down the right and caught Bangladesh unawares.

The Tribune, now published from Chandigarh, started publication on February 2, 1881, in Lahore (now in Pakistan). It was started by Sardar Dyal Singh Majithia, a public-spirited philanthropist, and is run by a trust comprising five eminent persons as trustees.

The Tribune, the largest selling English daily in North India, publishes news and views without any bias or prejudice of any kind. Restraint and moderation, rather than agitational language and partisanship, are the hallmarks of the newspaper. It is an independent newspaper in the real sense of the term.

The Tribune has two sister publications, Punjabi Tribune (in Punjabi) and Dainik Tribune (in Hindi).
