Chennai City's win over Bengaluru FC shows money need not necessarily spin quality!

The common perception among the majority that money is directly proportional to success was gleefully torn apart by a thrilling Chennai City FC on Thursday in Bhubaneshwar, as they knocked out Indian Super League (ISL) outfit Bengaluru FC.

The 2-1 result dumped the regning Super Cup champions out but the narrative that grabbed headlines was the fact that the I-League champions had just defeated the ISL winners.

One can't even make an argument like last year where ISL sides had played under-strength sides. Bengaluru were at full strength while Chennai City missed a couple of key players, especially defensive lynchpin Roberto Eslava.
