Sunil Chhetri started the season playing just behind Miku. While the later was extremely effective, Bengaluru's captain found it hard to impose himself in the thick of things. However as the season has progressed, coach, Albert Roca has handed Chhetri a free role, something that he is relishing.

Tonight, he was a floater, taking positions in all parts of the pitch, in the final third. At times, he made some late runs down the right wing. At times, he operated centrally and created some great chances.

He then moved towards his usual left wing where he combined well with full back, Subhasish Bose. Against Kerala, Chhetri proved that if given the freedom to move, he can be a handful and extremely hard to mark.
