Abahani’s midfielder Sohel Rana was shown a red card in the 77th minute following a mistimed challenge inside the box.

Police’s Anwar Sharifi converted the penalty and made it 3-2 but they too were reduced to 10 men after Kouakou was sent off in the 77th minute. They failed to convert any more chances as it ended 3-2 concluding their season. – TBP
