The ball's rolling at the Kishore Bharati Krirangan, and we're off in this Durand Cup 2025 clash between Mohun Bagan Super Giant and Border Security Force Football Team.
The stands are buzzing, the drums are beating, and it's time for the Mariners to take on the men in uniform. Let’s see who sets the tone early in this battle of grit and tradition.
Lovely ball floated over the top and Manvir Singh is on the move! He shrugs off his marker with brute strength, muscles his way into the BSF box, and gets the shot off under pressure, but Harpreet stands tall and pulls off a sharp save. That’s the first real warning from Mohun Bagan, and Manvir's looking in the mood tonight.
Liston Colaco swings in a teasing corner and Tom Aldred rises highest at the near post, gets a good connection, but can't keep it down. That was begging for a better finish Mohun Bagan knocking hard on the BSF door now.
It’s one-way traffic at the Kishore Bharati Krirangan. Anirudh Thapa picks out Manvir Singh with a delightful through ball, slicing open the BSF backline, but Harpreet reads it early and charges off his line to smother the danger. Another corner for the Mariners, who are camped in BSF’s half and dictating everything so far.
There it is! The pressure finally pays off. Roshan Singh delivers a peach of a cross from the left, whipped in with pace and precision, and the BSF defence is caught flat-footed.
Manvir Singh rises to the occasion, meets it with a thumping header, and smashes it past Harpreet! The Kishore Bharati Krirangan erupts as the Mariners draw first blood.
A sharp move from the Mariners as Thapa finds himself inside the box, trying to spin into space with a neat half-turn. But the touch is just a tad too heavy, and BSF breathe a sigh of relief as they hack it clear. That was nearly curtains just before half-time.
Manvir Singh’s towering header is the difference as the Mariners head into the break with a deserved 1-0 lead over BSF FT. It’s been all Mohun Bagan so far, wave after wave of pressure, slick passing, and total control. But BSF are still in it for now. Big 45 coming up.
Liston Colaco makes it two for the Mariners with a composed finish. He links up smartly with Sahal Abdul Samad, takes a lovely first touch inside the box, and lashes a low shot into the far corner. That’s his first of the night and third in the Durand Cup 2025. Mariners cruising now.
Liston Colaco is putting on a show under the lights in Kolkata! This one's all him, he picks up the ball on the flank, dances his way into the box with a burst of pace and a flurry of stepovers, completely fools his marker, and coolly slips the ball between the keeper’s legs.
Pure class from the winger, who now has a brace to his name and three goals in the Durand Cup 2025. The Mariners are flying, and BSF have no answers. This one looks done and dusted.
BSF’s defence is in disarray now. Sahal Abdul Samad darts into the box, glides past the onrushing keeper, and takes the shot. A BSF defender tries to clear off the line, but the assistant’s flag goes up, the ball had clearly crossed. The referee points to the spot and Sahal makes it four for the Mariners.
Lightning counter from Mohun Bagan with Liston Colaco charging through the middle, the BSF defence stretched wide open. With a hat-trick in sight, Liston unselfishly squares it left for Sahal, but the pass is just too heavy. Sahal can't get there in time, and BSF scramble it clear. That could’ve easily been number five.
Mohun Bagan Super Giant eased past Border Security Force FT with a 4-0 win in their Durand Cup 2025 Group B clash in Kolkata. Goals from Manvir Singh, Liston Colaco (two), and Sahal Abdul Samad sealed a dominant display from the Mariners, who now go joint-top of the group alongside Diamond Harbour FC, although they trail on goal difference.
That’s a wrap from Kolkata. Thanks for tuning in, we’ll catch you again with another live blog soon. Until then, take care and goodbye.
