The Kolkata Giants Humiliate Their Counterparts to Progress in the Durand Cup with an Imposing Scoreline.

Mohun Bagan Super Giant sealed their spot in the quarterfinals of the Durand Cup with a stunning 5-1 victory over Diamond Harbour FC. The Kolkata Giants showed their might and dominance with an imposing performance. The scoring was opened by Mohun Bagan's Nigerian forward Daniel Odafin with a thumping header from a corner kick. This was followed by a second-half screamer from midfielder Sourav Das, who sealed the win with a sublime free-kick from 25 yards out.

The result almost guarantees Mohun Bagan, the former national champions, a spot in the last eight of the competition. It also keeps them in the hunt for the trophy they won a record five times.

This was Mohun Bagan's third consecutive victory in the tournament and second in as many days after their 2-1 win over Army Green FC in their final group stage fixture.

Speaking after the match, Mohun Bagan coach Sanjoy Sen gave credit to his side's opponents.

"Diamond Harbour put up a brave fight, but we were determined to win today and seal our spot in the next round," said Sen.

With the win, Mohun Bagan sets up a mouth-watering quarterfinal clash with either Bengaluru FC or Army Red FC, who play their final group stage match later today.
