Late Victor Perez penalty helps East Bengal down Real Kashmir

A nine-man Real Kashmir went down by a solitary goal against a 10-man East Bengal, courtesy of an injury-time penalty converted by Victor Perez (90+5') in an I-League encounter at the TRC Turf Ground in Srinagar, Kashmir, on Monday.

The hosts played most of the match with 10 men after Danish Bhat was sent off in the 38th minute while Kallum Higginbotham (90+8') received the marching orders late in injury time along with Red and Golds' substitute Edmund Lalrindika for an off-the-ball altercation.

The coach of the home side, David Robertson continued with the same 11 that defeated NEROCA FC 1-0 last Wednesday.
