East Bengal ended a 22-year wait for men’s glory after clinching its maiden Indian Super League title on Thursday.
The last time the Red and Gold Brigade had tasted silverware in top-flight men’s football was during the 2003-04 season when they won the National Football League.
Oscar Bruzon-coached East Bengal came back from a goal down to beat Inter Kashi 2-1 at Kishore Bharati Krirangan.
Moreover, this ISL triumph only adds to the club’s achievements after the East Bengal women’s team successfully defended the Indian Women’s League title.
The Anthony Andrews coach Moshal girls retained their tile with two rounds remaining, finishing the 2025–26 season with 39 points, losing just once in their campaign.
