75' Shouts for a Penalty from the Bengaluru FC players after the ball wheezes past the hands of a Abahani player. However, the referee points to a corner for BFC.
69' Bengaluru FC have now entered the defensive mode as they are now sitting back and letting Abahani get the ball towards them. The game is almost over. All eyes on the Aizawl game elsewhere.
52' MISS! Chhetri dispossesses Abahani and launches a counter, sets up Udanta Singh at the far side who fails to find the target, Could have been 3-0 here for the Blues!
51' Dhaka Abahani constantly getting crosses delivered from the right, but are unable to hit the target after eventually being outnumbered in the Bengaluru box.
47' Segovia sets up Udanta up on the right, who cuts in and sets up Chhetri on a plate. The latter shoots straight onto Alam who saves it with a dive on to his right.
A first half with almost no action after the two goals being scored by Bengaluru comes to a close. Will Dhaka bounce back? Second half ten minutes away.
33' Suicidal! A cross from the left is not dealt with ease by Juanan as he almost ends up kicking it into the back of his own net. Corner to Dhaka Abahani.
10' Nothing worthwhile happening here as the players are struggling to weave down passes in a near-swampy pitch, although it is Bengaluru who are trying harder to exploit the Abahani defense.
Dhaka Abahani : Prantosh Das, Imtiaz Sultan Jitu, Mohammed Mamun Miah, Mohammad Nayeem Mia, Sultan Sakhil, Syed Arafat Hossain Tasin, Faisal Ahmed Shitol
Bengaluru FC : Gurpreet Singh Sandhu, Lenny Rodrigues, Thongkhosiem Haokip, Joyner Lourenco, Daniel Lalhlimpuia, Malsawmzuala Sawmtea
Bengaluru FC may well be playing their last match of the season, as they face off against Abahani Dhaka at the Bangabandhu Stadium, in Dhaka, today.
The Blues have been on terrific form this season, making it to the final of the ISL, where they lost out to Chennaiyin FC, and then winning the Super Cup, defeating East Bengal in the summit clash.
The Blues have won four out of their five matches in Group E, and currently stand on 12 points. However, only the team that finishes top of the group can make it to the knockout stage of the tournament, and the Blues are currently behind New Radiant SC of the Maldives after losing out to the Maldivian side 2-0 in Male.
While both New Radiant and Benglauru have beaten each other once, the Maldivian team is currently ahead 2-1 on head-to-head stats, and would make it to the knockouts if they beat Aizawl.
However, if Aizawl do manage to get a draw or a win against New Radiant, Bengaluru FC would get right back into contention. They need to ensure that they finish with more points than New Radiant, after the end of this match.
