That's that. ATK Mohun Bagan has thrashed Maziya 5-1 in a virtual final to find a place in the AFC Cup knockout stage. The Mariners, playing at their home ground in the Saltlake Stadium, dominated proceedings right from the wordgo.

FT': Maziya 2-5 ATKMB
A good back paas from David Williams; finds Roy Krishna to perfection. The Fijian dodges one defender and shoots, but unfortunately finds the post. He is disappointed. This could have been a brace for Krishna.
That's goal number 7 of the night and it once again comes from Tana. A brace for the Spanish star and he has been the only saving grace for Maziya tonight.
Maziya 2-5 ATKMB
This should be the final nail in the coffin for Maziya. Carl McHugh gets a clear shot on goal, he fakes the first and then just places it in like a boss.
Maziya 1-5 ATKMB
Brilliant cross from by Joni Kauko from the right flank to Liston. He 23-year-old gets a good first touch, but fails to control it and messes up what could have been ATKMB's fifth goal of the night.
ATKMB just keep running away with the game, this time from a set piece. Not the best of free-kicks from Liston, but the ball somehow pierces the wall to find Subhashish Bose, who makes up for the earlier miss.
Maziya 1-4 ATKMB
Roy Krishna left unmarked in the box and the ball finds him to perfection. The Fijian maintains his cool and finds the back of the net. ATKMB extend their lead.
Maziya 1-3 ATKMB
A nasty challenge from the back by Stewart on Liston. The crowd expresses their displeasure felt on that challenge but the referee does not bring out the card.
A beautiful cross from the left flank from Liston, but Shubashish fails to convert. A couple of players - one from each team are down in the box.
