135th Durand Cup: Vishnu's Hat-trick Helps East Bengal Score Eight Past CISF Protectors
Mohun Bagan Super Giant: East Bengal FC produced a ruthless attacking display to register a thumping 8-0 victory over CISF Protectors in their Group A fixture of the 135th Durand Cup at the Kishore Bharati Krirangan in Kolkata on Friday.
The Red-and-Gold Brigade raced into a 3-0 lead before half-time and showed no signs of slowing after the break, adding five more goals in a dominant second-half performance to secure all three points. Vishnu P.V. starred with a hat-trick, Jesin T.K. struck twice, Jeakson Singh also found the scoresheet, while CISF Protectors captain Mohammad Khalid scored an own goal as East Bengal bounced back emphatically from the derby loss.
Ahead of the Group A encounter, both coaches made several changes to their starting line-ups and altered their formations. East Bengal FC head coach Antonio López Habas switched to a 4-3-3 system, making six changes from the side that started the Kolkata Derby against Mohun Bagan Super Giant.
