India international CK Vineeth showed his predatory skills with double strike in the extra time as Bengaluru FC beat Mohun Bagan 2-0 to win the 38th Federation Cup football tournament. Bengaluru FC also booked their berth for next year AFC Cup by virtue of winning the tournament.

For Mohun Bagan, it was a case of so-near yet so far finishing second best in both I-League and Federation Cup. Call it irony, Vineeth produced a magical performance just days after Kerala's state Audit department where he was employed decided to terminate his services for low attendance percentage despite knowing that he is professional footballer.

On the day, he was quiet for the better part of the match but did the needful in the 107th and 119th minute to seal the issue for Alberto Roca's men.
