It ends a stalemate!
What a game of football did we witness! The points were shared in the end and rightly so. The visitors dominated in the first half and took a two goal lead in the second. However, the hosts came out all guns blazing in the second. Attack after attack from them and they were finally rewarded with a goal in the 69th minute through Udanta Singh. They continued pressing but it was Kerala Blasters FC who had the chance to kill the game off. Slavisa Stojanovic's effort though rattled the bar. The away side was made to pay for that miss as Bengaluru FC equalized in the 85th minute through Sunil Chhetri.

BOOM!!
OFF THE BAR! Kerala Blasters FC almost killed the game off there. Sahal Abdul Samad from the right cuts it back towards Slavisa Stojanovic. He tries to place it into the top right corner but unfortunately hits the bar. Had it gone in, the game probably would have been done right there.

Blasters dominated half
What a half for the visitors! They have dominated it right from the start and head into the break with a two-goal cushion. They were the ones creating the chances and eventually took the lead through a penalty in the 15th minute. It was all Kerala Blasters FC after that too and then they doubled their lead in the 40th minute through Courage Pekuson. They could have easily scored the third but Gurpreet Singh Sandhu made a very good save. The hosts now will have to come out with more intent but also defend well as one goal could probably kill this off. Kerala Blasters FC on the other hand, can sit back and hit on the counter.

Ouchhh!!
Kerala Blaster's skipper is lying on the ground. Blood dripping from his head. Mohamad Rakip crosses in but this ball was little too high. Gurpreet Singh Sandhu though still looks to punch the ball but misses. However, on the way down, his elbow hits the head of Sandesh Jhingan who is busted open.

Matchday 70
Game 70 and it is a clash between teams which have enjoyed contrasting fates in the tournament so far. One is right at the top of the table and the other is just a spot above the team at the bottom. Bengaluru FC will lock horns with Kerala Blasters FC in the former's den. The hosts have already made it through for the semis whereas the visitors have already been knocked out. They though will be eager to rack a few wins before the tournament ends and end their campaign on a high. They however are coming on the back off a loss into this game and another stiff test awaits them. The hosts are big favorites to get all three points here but a surprise cannot be ruled out.
