When Dasgupta slammed ISL as a 'masala league', Mohun Bagan's Debasish Dutta hit back saying 'grapes are sour'...
There has been much hue and cry during the past few months over East Bengal's possible participation in the Indian Super League (ISL).
While some officials continued to claim that the Red and Golds are set to play in the top tier once again, there were lingering doubts about their induction in ISL.
On Saturday evening, Shanti Ranjan Dasgupta, assistant general secretary of East Bengal, criticized ISL and also hinted that it will be difficult for them to be a part of it next season due to the ongoing Coronavirus pandemic.
