Scuffle mars Kolkata club tie

The Mohun Bagan-East Bengal CAB First Division League match was marred with players and officials of both teams including Bengal players Manoj Tiwary and Ritam Kundu exchanging blows during a match at the Eden Gardens on Saturday.

Trouble began when East Bengal's Ritam Porel was bowled by Bagan's Ritam Kundu. Porel, taking his own time to walk out, got a mouthful from Bagan skipper Tiwary. As Porel hurled back, a mayhem followed as officials and supporters of the two teams rushed to the ground and a brawl ensued.

There was pushing and shoving as the area in front of the dressing room turned into a virtual battlefield.u00a0 Trying to play down the incident, CAB Joint Secretary Arun Mitra said, "I have cautioned Tiwary and Porel and the matter is being sorted out."
