Mohun Bagan vs East Bengal Highlights, Bengal Derby Kalinga Super Cup 2024: Cleiton Silva's Brace Powers East Bengal To 3-1 Win Over Mohun Bagan, Qualify For Semi Final

Cleiton Silva has once again proven instrumental for East Bengal, securing a brace that propels the team to its first-ever Super Cup semi-final spot. The East Bengal supporters in Bengal are set for a celebratory night. Carles Cuadrat's squad is now geared up to face Jamshedpur FC in the semi-finals.

MBSG 1:3 EBFC (FT)

Petratos delivers a dangerous ball into the East Bengal box. It only required a touch with players like Suhail and Cummings present, but none came. Meanwhile, East Bengal had an opportunity to score at the other end, with the ball bouncing off the woodwork twice. We are in the injury time.

Cletion Silva With Brace! A big mistake from the goalkeeper Arsh as he mishandles the loopy cross by Hijazi, but Silva did not let it go as he was at the right place at the right time, firing one in. He has potentially sealed the game for East Bengal, because Mohun Bagan scoring three goals looks unlikely from here.

Ravi Rana, thinking he had time, loses possession to Borja who attempts a curler hitting the post. Nandhakumar capitalises on the rebound, putting East Bengal on front for the first in the match.

MBSG 1:2 EBFC (63')

After an excellent first half, we are back for more action in the decisive half in the context of Group A.

Penalty Miss! Petratos misses the target in his second try , hitting the post, and the Mariners fail to convert the rebound. Earlier Hijazi received a yellow card for the handball, and Siverio is booked for dissent. We go to Half-time as Derby is living up the expectation.

In the last ten minutes of play East Bengal has come close to scoring from a set-piece, but Nandhakumar failed to capitalise. Glan Martins received a yellow card for a late challenge. Petratos' cross from a freekick was cleared, and Basfore missed the header opportunity. The score remains 1-1.

A throw-in near the box and Cleiton pounces on that like a Tiger. In a crowded space, he unleashes a powerful shot that finds the back of the net for the equaliser.

MBSG 1:1 EBFC (24')

Hector Yuste Canton Scores! The corner kick yields dividends for Mohun Bagan as Hector guides the ball with a well-guided flick to the near-post from Petratos’ delivery.

MBSG 1:0 EBFC (19')

Despite early warning signs for East Bengal, the match appears evenly contested. Sadiku had seemingly found the net for Mohun Bagan after a threatening attack, but the celebrations were short-lived as he was ruled offside.

The opening half of the Kalinga Super Cup 2024 Bengal Derby has kicked off at the Kalinga Stadium in Bhubaneswar with MBSG attacking from left to right.

MBSG 0:0 EBFC (2')

A draw will be sufficient for Carles Cuadrat's (East Bengal) team as they seek their first semifinal appearance in the Super Cup since the inaugural edition in 2018.
