It was a battle between two teams who had conceded the lowest number of goals in the league stage of the Indian Super League (ISL), hence a low-scoring affair in Bengaluru was never a surprise.
But the challenge was tougher for the Bengaluru defence because they were up against the side that had scored the second most number of goals (33) this season.
Juanan and co. had an uphill task containing the likes of Roy Krishna, David Williams and Edu Garcia but the Bengaluru backline did a tremendous job in bottling one of the most lethal attacks in the league.
