It was a proud moment for Indian football as Bengaluru FC managed to raise the bar and went on to become the first Indian club to reach the final of the prestigious AFC Cup. Skipper Sunil Chhetri with a brilliant brace stole the show as the Blues rallied from a goal down to carve a historic 3-1 triumph over title-holders, Johor Darul Ta’zim of Malaysia. This incidentally is the first victory for the hosts against the visitors in five meetings and should come as a much-needed shot in the arm for the game in the country.
