Kolkata, Sept 6 (IBNS) In a thrilling Kolkata Derby clash, East Bengal completely dominated the match to beat arch-rivals Mohun Bagan 4-0 and win the sixth Calcutta Football League (CFL) premier division title in Kolkata on Sunday.

Riding high on their South Korean midfielder Do Dong-hyung's duel strike, East Bengal supporters were chuffed to bits as their team mauled the century old soccer club.

The South Korean scored in the 2nd and 38th minute of the game.

Creating fresh trouble for Mohun Bagan, striker Dudu Omagbemi of Nigeria was evicted for two yellow-carded offences as the Indian football giants were reduced to a 10-men side minutes after the break.

With one match to spare, East Bengal have taken an unassailable 25 points from their nine matches after winning Sunday's outing.

Mohammed Rafique (81) and Rahul Beke (90+3) minute scored the braces for the 'Red and Yellow' brigade to ensure an emphatic 4-0 win.
