Durand Cup 2025 final live streaming: When and where to watch NorthEast United FC vs Diamond Harbour FC game

Giant-killers Diamond Harbour FC are facing NorthEast United FC as they look to script history by becoming the first debutant team to win the Durand Cup title on Saturday.

 

For NorthEast United, a win would not only bring them their second successive Durand Cup crown but also etch their name alongside giants of Indian football, as no team has managed to retain the title in the last 34 years.

 

The last to do so was East Bengal, who completed a hat-trick of wins in 1989, 1990 and 1991.

 

For Diamond Harbour, the stakes are equally high. Having already enjoyed a dream run by reaching the final in their very first appearance, the Kibu Vicuna-coached side now stands on the cusp of creating history.

 

The match is being held at Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan of the Salt Lake Stadium in Kolkata at 5.30 PM.

NorthEast United head coach Juan Pedro Benali said, "Diamond Harbour have defeated East Bengal who were the favourites. I don't think we are the favourites. It's the final. In the final there are no good teams. There are no favourites in the final. This is a very psychological game. I think the team who is strong mentally will win the game."

 

Kibu Vicuna, coach of Diamond Harbour FC, added, "We are playing with the champions who have a very good team. We are prepared but starting with humility. Pressure is a privilege. We don't have additional pressure."
