Toothless East Bengal fail to beat Real Kashmir despite complete domination

East Bengal kick-started their I-League 2019-20 journey with a disappointing draw against Real Kashmir FC at home on Wednesday evening.

After dominating the game throughout 90 minutes, the Red and Golds could pick up only a point that also thanks to a late equaliser from striker Marcos Jimenez De La Espada.

After narrowly missing out on the title last season, fans expected the team to start this season with a bang but due to some very poor finishing, they ended up disappointed.
