East Bengal FC, last year's runners-up, kicked off their Durand Cup 2024 journey with a solid 3-1 victory over the Indian Air Force Football Team. The mix of young talent and fresh recruits indicated a strong start to their season.

Newcomers Madih Talal and Dimitrios Diamantakos made a significant impact during the game. Talal generated numerous opportunities, while Saul Crespo demonstrated promising chemistry with the new players, leading to the two comeback goals that secured their win.

Downtown Heroes' Liberian forward, Darius Snorton Perwood, netted two goals against the Indian Air Force Football Team (IAFFT) at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan (VYBK), clinching the Srinagar club's first-ever victory in the IndianOil Durand Cup.

Perwood's goals, one in each half of the second Group A match, secured three vital points for the Heroes in their Durand Cup 2024 campaign, following a winless debut season last year. Conversely, the Airmen have now suffered defeats in both of their group matches.
