East Bengal Vs Mohun Bagan Durand Cup 2025 Quarterfinal Highlights: Diamantakos Takes EB To 2-1 Win In Kolkata Derby
East Bengal vs Mohun Bagan, Durand Cup 2025 Quarterfinal LIVE Score: A revamped East Bengal, inspired by Greek striker and substitute Dimitrios Diamantakos' double strike, stunned archrivals Mohun Bagan 2-1 in a fiery Kolkata Derby to storm into the semifinals of the 134th IndianOil Durand Cup on Sunday, August 17.
Diamantakos, brought on as an 18th-minute substitute after Moroccan forward Hamid Ahadad limped off injured, turned out to be the game-changer.
Diamantakos first converted from the penalty spot in the 38th minute before doubling East Bengal's lead seven minutes into the second half with a sharp finish that left Mohun Bagan's defence flat-footed.
Rejoice East Bengal fans! It is finally a win in the Kolkata derby!
Full-time whistle! Jubilant scenes around the East Bengal dugout as they edge past Indian Super League champions, the Mariners. Substitute Dimitrios Diamantakos proves the difference, striking twice to seal the victory over Mohun Bagan.
Plenty of time still left for twists and in the meantime, PV Vishnu earns a corner.
Asish Rai brought off for Suhail Bhat as Mohun Bagan keep pushing for the equaliser.
Miguel Ferreira stays in the mix, whipping in a cross for Diamantakos, but Vishal Kaith stretches to get a hand on it. Moments later, the former is played through on the edge of the box, just to miscontrol and let the opportunity slip.
Meanwhile, Naorem Mahesh is out for Souvik. PV Vishnu comes for Edmund. David comes on as well.
East Bengal look rattled! The Mariners are piling on the pressure and another goal feels imminent. EB cannot afford to give away the game after leading 2-0!
Deepak Tangri, Dippendu Biswas and Dimitrios Petratos come on for Mohun Bagan.
Anirudh Thapa pulls one back for the Mariners and the fans have found their voices back. His curling strike from distance sneaks through, bouncing past everyone and settling into the back of the net.
East Bengal aren't putting in any extra effort, letting the Mariners control possession and push forward. A rare EB attack sees Kevin Sibille attempt a cross towards Diamantakos in the box, but he ends up skying it.
Mohammed Rakip fouls Liston Colaco just outside the box and the latter steps up to take the free-kick. The latter plays the ball into the box and Prabhsukhan Gill can't collect it.
Jason Cummings is free and attempts to shoot it with his side foot, but Kevin Sibille is there on the line to clear it away.
East Bengal fans erupt! Diamantakos strikes again, Vishal Kaith gets a hand to it, but the ball still finds the net. The former is booked for removing his jersey in celebration, but he wouldn't mind one bit.
A slick one-two involving Sahal Abdul Samad sees him drop his shoulder, glide past defenders and unleash a shot, but a deflection keeps the score in favour of East Bengal.
Passang Tamang makes way for Jason Cummings, with the Aussie striker coming on for the final 45 minutes to try and shift the momentum.
Diamantakos' strike from the penalty spot remains the difference between the two teams as Mohun Bagan coach Jose Molina will need to get back to the drawing board and find out why his team isn't clicking, a strange sight for the ISL champions.
Apuia unleashes a strike from outside the box, the Mariners' first real attempt, but it whistles just wide of the target.
Can Mohun Bagan find an equaliser before halftime, or will East Bengal, relentless in its attacks, extend the lead further?
Moments earlier, Abhishek Tekcham's challenge on Edmund Lalrindika was waved off despite East Bengal appealing for a penalty.
This time, Bipin Singh is brought down by Asish Rai and the referee awards the spot-kick.
Dimitrios Diamantakos, who came on in place of Hamid Ahadad, makes no mistake from 12 yards to hand East Bengal the lead!
Diamantakos slots the ball into the net, but the assistant referee flags for offside. Replays confirm he was ahead of the line.
Tom Aldred lost possession just outside the box, drawing a foul. East Bengal took the free-kick and scored, but referee Venkatesh disallowed the goal and called play back.
On the retake, Miguel Ferreira fired his shot over the crossbar. Comedy of errors in the middle.
On the left flank, Bipin Singh takes on Asish Rai, holding his ground well against the latter to retain possession.
Hamid Ahadad goes down injured and his Kolkata Derby looks to be over. Dimitrios Diamantakos is preparing to come on, though the former has not taken the stretcher just yet.
Naorem Mahesh displays his sharp awareness, drawing a foul as Passang Tamang sticks out a leg to bring him down. Bipin Singh steps up over the set piece.
Miguel Ferreira again unleashes a strike from outside the box, but it takes a deflection. Hamid Ahadad, waiting inside the area, tries to flick it goalwards, but is denied.
Miguel Ferreira makes his way into the box, but Alberto Rodriguez steps in and clears the danger with a solid boot.
Its insanely loud at the stadium with both fanbases finding their voices already.
The action begins at the Salt Lake Stadium with East Bengal setting the ball in motion. They move from right to left, while Mohun Bagan push forward towards the opposite end.
EB coach Oscar Bruzon said that Vishnu might be part of the matchday team as he inches closer to attaining match fitness after recovering from an injury. Although he is not in the XI, he has been named in the substitutes.

Hello and welcome to the first big football game of the year, the Kolkata Derby. East Bengal are all set to face Mohun Bagan in this iconic clash at the Salt Lake Stadium this evening.
