ISL 2024-25: Chhetri Helps Bengaluru FC To A Late Comeback Win Over Mohammedan SC
Indian Super League: Indian football legend Sunil Chhetri scored twice late in the match as Bengaluru FC prevailed over Mohammedan SC 2-1 in an Indian Super League 2024-25 match at the Kishore Bharati Krirangan here on Wednesday. The Blues now have registered a win against all three Kolkata clubs this season.
It was Cesar Manzoki, who handed the hosts an early lead but Chhetri came on as a substitute and scored two goals to see the visitors return home with a famous win. He became the first player to score against all the 15 ISL teams and now also leads the league in scoring the most spot-kicks (20) in the competition’s history.
Mohammedan SC had a spring in their steps from the start of the match as they pressed Bengaluru FC as a whole unit. They were even winning the second balls, and Manzoki, pairing up with Mirjalol Kasimov and Carlos Franca, caused many problems for the Blues, who started the game with an all-Indian backline.
