Dimitri Petratos came up with a fine solo effort to find the only goal of the match and help a 10-man Mohun Bagan Super Giant prevail over its traditional rival Emami East Bengal in the final of the 132nd Durand Cup at the Salt Lake Stadium here on Sunday.
The Indian Super League champion regained the coveted title after a gap of 23 years. It is also Bagan’s 17th title in the tournament helping it surpass East Bengal as the most successful team in this competition.
With a turnout of around 60,000 in the galleries cheering for their favourite sides, the match turned out to be a nervy affair forcing the two sides to seek caution over aggression.
