East Bengal produced a stunning 4-1 victory over Mohun Bagan in the 2026 Durand Cup final, with Edmund Lalrindika scoring a memorable hat-trick. Antonio Lopez Habas’ tactical masterclass delivered the Red & Gold brigade their first Durand Cup title since 2004 and added another chapter to the historic Kolkata Derby rivalry.

An 85th-minute strike from Edmund looked enough to hand East Bengal FC the ISL title in a dramatic Kolkata Derby. But a late Jason Cummings header rescued a point for Mohun Bagan Super Giant in front of a packed Salt Lake Stadium. From tactical battles to defensive errors, missed chances, and last-minute drama, this was a derby that truly lived up to its legacy.
