Mumbai: Mohun Bagan threw away a chance to close the gap on arch-rivals East Bengal at the top of the I-League table as they played out their second consecutive goalless draw against Mumbai FC at the Cooperage Stadium here on Wednesday.

East Bengal dropped two points earlier in the day against Shillong Lajong FC paving the way for second-placed Bagan to trim the gap to one point if they won on the night.
