Match Report: Durand Cup 2024: NorthEast United thrash Odisha FC; reach quarter-finals

Durand Cup 2024: NorthEast United FC vs Odisha FC – Build-up

The 133rd edition of the Durand Cup has reached the final matchday of its group stages with four teams still fighting for a place in the knockouts. While Bengaluru FC, Kerala Blasters FC, Indian Army FT, and Punjab FC have secured their qualification, four places are still up for grabs and will be filled by the group winners of Groups A, E, and F, and one more second best-placed team.

The next matchday takes us to Kokrajhar for a Group E clash between group leaders Northeast United FC and Odisha FC. The Highlanders will need to stay undefeated in order to qualify while Odisha will have to do a lot more.

The Stakes

NorthEast United FC

The Highlanders have recorded their best-ever start in the Durand Cup having won both of their opening games. NorthEast United began their campaign with a 0-2 win over home side Bodoland FC before getting a statement 4-0 win over BSF. Juan Pedro Benali’s side are currently at the top of Group E and most likely to go through to the knockouts.

Odisha FC

Odisha FC have sent their reserve side for the Durand Cup and their young guns have given a decent account of themselves so far. They began with a thumping 5-0 victory over BSF before being thrashed 2-0 by Bodoland FC last week. The Juggernauts are currently placed third on the table and qualification seems very unlikely for them at this stage.
