23'- BENGALURU FC SCORE!!!
Brilliant turn from Javi Hernandez as he plays a through ball to Roy Krishna. He receives the ball in his path and tries to put it past Sachin, but the goalie makes himself big to make the save. However, the rebound goes to Krishna who pokes it towards the empty net. An incoming Victor Mongil, in an attempt to clear the lines, unfortunately turned the ball inside his own net.

The likes of Giannou and Danish Farooq are trying to put those defence-splitting passes to put speedy wingers like Rahul KP through on goal from the flanks.

Great run from Giannou who puts Saurav through on goal. The right-back cuts it back for Rahul KP, but the ball is just behind the oncoming player. Good play from the hosts.
