ISL 2024-25: East Bengal End Punjab FC's Playoff Hopes With 3-1 Victory
Mohun Bangal Super Giant: Punjab FC's hopes of reaching the playoffs stage of the Indian Super League (ISL) 2024-25 were dashed as they suffered a 1-3 defeat at home to East Bengal FC at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium here on Saturday. Dimitrios Diamantakos, Naorem Mahesh Singh, and Lalchungnunga struck for the winners while Ezequiel Pulga Vidal scored the consolation goal for Punjab FC.
The loss leaves Punjab FC in 11th place with 24 points from 21 matches, while East Bengal leapfrogged them into 10th, also on 24 points.
East Bengal took control early in the 15th minute. A defensive lapse from Punjab allowed Dimitrios Diamantakos to score with a left-footed shot after a mishandled clearance from Suresh Meitei. Diamantakos had another chance shortly after but missed from close range. Despite this, East Bengal continued to threaten, with Raphael Messi Bouli creating numerous problems for the Punjab defense.
