First off, Mohun Bagan made their fourth ISL final in five years. And this time, they didn’t just win the Cup; they completed the coveted League Shield and Cup double, becoming only the second team in ISL history to pull off this massive feat.

It’s been two days since Mohun Bagan Super Giant lifted the ISL Cup, and I’m honestly shocked the world isn’t talking about it more. Let’s change that right now.

First off, Mohun Bagan made their fourth ISL final in five years. And this time, they didn’t just win the Cup; they completed the coveted League Shield and Cup double, becoming only the second team in ISL history to pull off this massive feat.

And their numbers this season? They were unreal. They racked up 56 points, breaking the record for most points in a single ISL season. They had 16 clean sheets, the best defensive record in the league, and scored 52 goals, showing they could dominate at both ends of the pitch. Oh, and let’s not forget—they didn’t lose a single game at home all season.

Now, the final was peak drama. Bengaluru FC pushed them hard, but Mohun Bagan came from behind to complete a thrilling 2-1 victory. Jamie Maclaren’s clutch goal in extra-time sealed the deal, while Vishal Kaith—who kept an incredible 15 clean sheets this season—proved once again why he’s the best goalkeeper in India right now.

But this isn’t just about one season—it’s about the legacy. Mohun Bagan is India’s oldest football club, and their history runs deeper than trophies. Not sure if many of you know about 1911, when Mohun Bagan, playing barefoot, defeated British team East Yorkshire Regiment to lift the IFA Shield—a moment that became a symbol of India’s fight for independence. Fast forward over a century, and they’re still at the pinnacle of Indian football.

And for those who don’t follow football closely, you must have at least heard of Real Madrid right? Well, Mohun Bagan was founded 13 years before them, in 1889. So, they’ve been doing this for over 130 years!MBSG isn’t just a football club; it’s an institution. Now, you know! And yes, All hail the Mariners!
