Liston's Masterclass Sinks Mohammedan SC as MBSG Dominate Durand Cup

Mohun Bagan Super Giant (MBSG) delivered a commanding performance in the Durand Cup, overpowering Mohammedan Sporting Club with a clinical display spearheaded by a scintillating hat-trick from Liston Colaco. The dynamic winger was in unstoppable form, tearing apart Mohammedan’s defense with his pace, dribbling, and lethal finishing, as the Mariners secured a resounding victory.

From the opening whistle, MBSG asserted their dominance, controlling possession and pressing high. Liston broke the deadlock in the 22nd minute with a thunderous strike from outside the box, leaving the keeper with no chance. He doubled the lead just before halftime, capitalizing on a defensive error to slot home with composure. Mohammedan SC struggled to contain MBSG’s attacking flair, and Liston completed his hat-trick early in the second half with a sublime solo effort, cutting in from the left before curling a shot into the far corner.

Despite a late consolation goal from Mohammedan, the match was firmly in MBSG’s grip, with their midfield and defense also impressing in a well-rounded team performance. The victory sends a strong message to their rivals as the Mariners continue their quest for Durand Cup glory. Liston’s heroics will undoubtedly be the talking point, but the collective strength of the squad suggests MBSG are serious contenders for the title.
