At Kolkata today,East Bengal's hopes of scripting history by becoming the first Indian football club to enter the AFC Cup final were dashed by a far more superior Kuwait Sports Club. The Kuwait Club won the second leg semi-final convincingly by a 3-0 margin. Needing a minimum 2-0 win to make it to the summit clash, East Bengal players looked overawed by the occasion and also did not have the firepower to win the match. The scorers for Kuwait SC were Rogerio Coutinho, 42nd minute, Hadi Khamees 44th minute, and Fahad Awaad in the 87th minute.East Bengal played with 10 men for the last 24 minutes as their stopper Arnab Mondal was shown red card for pulling a rival player by holding his jersey.The two-time defending champions thus made it to yet another continental club championship final with an aggregate scoreline of 7-2.
