Durand Cup Knockout Stages

The Durand Cup 2024 has entered the knockout stages, with the quarterfinal matches currently taking place. This year’s competition has introduced a new rule where there will be no extra time during the knockout rounds.

If the teams remain tied after the standard 90 minutes of play, the matches will proceed directly to penalty shootouts to determine the winner.

In recent matches, NorthEast United secured a place in the semifinals by defeating Indian Army with a score of 2-0. Similarly, Shillong Lajong triumphed over East Bengal in a close contest, finishing the match at 2-1.

The remaining quarterfinal matches feature Mohun Bagan facing Punjab FC and Bengaluru FC taking on Kerala Blasters. These matches are highly anticipated as teams vie for a spot in the next round.

It is noteworthy that since the 2023 edition of the Durand Cup, the policy of eliminating extra time in the knockout stages has been in effect, streamlining the competition process.
