Roy Krishna starred in Bengaluru FC's 2-1 win over Odisha in the quarter-final as a 121st minute worldie ensured the Blues' place in the semi-finals.
For the first 90 minutes, the match was quite dull and lacked any attacking prowess from either side. It came to life in the extra time when substitute Siva Sakhti smashed the ball in the net in the first 15 minutes of the extra time.
Then, Odisha's Diego Mauricio scored the equaliser with a deft header and got his team back into the game. The match seemed that it surely go into penalties when Fijian forward Krishna let one fly from the edge of the box and found the top-right corner.
