On December 5, 2004, he was a part in an altercation that resulted in the death of Dempo forward Cristiano Junior during the 2004 Federation Cup final versus Dempo. However, as a result of the tragedy, the alarming lack of resources and medical personnel during the game was brought to light, and this had a major impact on the I-League.

India made it to the event finals for the first time thanks to his saves in the semi-final match against Kyrgyzstan.

Together with Mahesh Gawli of Goa and other defenders, he and the pre-match favourites, Syria, in this encounter, fended off each successive wave of onslaught.

He was one of the team’s stars after making more than 35 saves during the entire competition.

After the aforementioned setback, his side lost five and drew one of the following seven games, which was enough for his coach to decide to switch Subrata with Sangram Mukherjee for the season’s remaining league games.
