The last clear-cut chance of the game broke the way of the Islander in the 88th minute of the game. It will be a momentous occasion for Des Buckingham and his side as the Hero ISL League Winners’ Shield will be presented to the Islanders on the same day. Sunil Chhetri came off in the 83rd minute of the game for Udanta Singh. The Islanders came very close to scoring an equaliser in the 80th minute of the game from a free-kick right outside the box. Rowlin Borges had an instant impact as he came on and stepped up to take a corner from the right side in the 77th minute of the game. They created the first chance of the second period in the 50th minute of the game. He cut the ball back to find the late run of Javier Hernandez in the centre, who smashed the ball into the roof of the net to make it 2-0 in favour of Bengaluru FC. Soon after the referee blew the final whistle of the first half as he brought it to a close. Bipin had given the slip to his marker on the left wing and tucked inside as he made his way towards the goal with the ball. Vignesh tried clearing the ball from the right but it deflected off of Siva and landed at the feet of Chhetri right outside the Mumbai City FC box. While Mumbai was keeping the ball well but were struggling to penetrate the defensive lines of the Blues. Jorge Pereyra Diaz earned the Islanders first corner of the game in the 3rd minute as he pressed Jhingan to force him to play the ball.

Hernandez whipped a corner towards the far post, where the Islanders had left Chhetri unmarked - the veteran charged in to head his team into the lead.

So it’s been a good starting point to beat Mumbai City FC and Kerala Blasters FC in the last two games. Grayson stated how the team needs to stay humble in what they do and put focus on the upcoming game. “Even when we played them in Mumbai, we played alright in the first half we just made that mistake and allowed them opportunities to play. Grayson shed light on the team sticking to their game plan and labelled the victory against Mumbai City FC as an unbelievable achievement. In the reverse fixture in November, Mumbai City FC emerged winners with a 4-0 scoreline. The Blues kept their foot on the pedal from the first minute and knocked at the Islanders doors numerous times in the first half which ended 0-0.

Sunil Chhetri is 38 years old. He has played 37 minutes of football in 2023. But he put up a vintage performance as BFC beat leaders Mumbai City.

There was just one man on the pitch...at the very centre stood a 5'7 gentleman in a blue jersey speaking to a camera. But at 38, Chhetri is still a bloody good footballer and easily one of the fittest men on the pitch. The Kanteerava Stadium was taken over by the away fans and it was a game Chhetri would have loved to play in. As is the training policy, all the substitutes run the breadth of the field a few times before hitting the shower. Knowing Chhetri, that fan might just be the next recipient of the #SC11 t-shirt. He jumps over the advertisement hoardings, folds his hands in gratitude and blows a kiss. While Mandar ran away with Chhetri's match jersey, the BFC skipper kept his word and handed over a jersey to the fans before cupping his palms over his ears to seemingly drown out the noise and make his way into the team bus. Nothing's changed this season...except the armband has been replaced by a substitute's bib each time he's walked out of the tunnel in 2023, until Thursday. It's something you take for granted - Chhetri walking out of the players' tunnel with the captain's armband strapped onto his left bicep. He gestures to his teammates with an open palm saying 'hold on, hold on' and jogs towards the West Block, where the Bengaluru FC faithful have unfurled a banner that reads 'Immortal No. If only size mattered...he outjumps his teammate Aleksandar Jovanovic [who is at least a head taller] and buries the header into the bottom corner. Javi Hernandez curls a corner towards the far post.
