East Bengal eye revenge against Bagan in ‘virtual quarter-final’ in Super Cup

East Bengal FC are gearing up for a crucial clash against Mohun Bagan Super Giant in the AIFF Super Cup, a match seen as a virtual quarter-final. After their narrow loss to Bagan in the IFA Shield final, East Bengal are determined to take revenge and secure a semi-final spot. A win guarantees qualification, while a draw could also work in their favor unless Dempo beat Chennaiyin FC by a large margin. Coach Óscar Bruzón has urged his players to aim for victory rather than play safe, banking on strong performances from Mahesh Singh, Bipin Singh, and Hamid Ahadad. Mohun Bagan, on the other hand, are focused on controlling the midfield and converting chances in what promises to be an intense and high-stakes derby.
