New Delhi, Jan 9 : Mohammedan Sporting Club will play their first I-League match in seven years when they face Delhi s Sudeva FC on Saturday in the first game of the 2020/21 season. It has been a long road back to the top for the club, who for a better part of their history were seen as part of a triumvirate of clubs ruling the roost in Kolkata.
The term Kolkata giants in the context of Indian football has for the past two decades brought images of a packed Salt Lake stadium cheering for Mohun Bagan and East Bengal. The two clubs have had seen their ups and downs in the I-League but their capacity to spark extreme emotions and draw big crowds went a long way in them getting berths in the Indian Super League (ISL) this season.
