Despite trailing by 2-1 in the first half, Bengal bounced back and rode to the final of the Santosh Trophy with an inspiring 4-2 victory against Services in Hyderabad on Sunday. 

Manotosh Majhi drew the first blood for Bengal. But the 32-time champion had to concede two quick goals, one perfect header from Bikash Thapa, and a suicidal goal. 

But Bengal did not stop their aggression and found nets through Ravi Hansda who struck a double and Narohari Srestha who scored the third goal for the winners.

Significantly, Ravi Hansda who won the man-of-the-match award as expected took his tally to 11 goals in the competition to secure the top-scorer's spot. 

Former Indian skipper and Dronacharya Syed Nayeemuddin graced the occasion, meeting with the players before the match.
