Udanta's goal incorrectly disallowed due to offside and now the penalty not given...even foreign referee makes mistake. #LetsFootball with video refereeing. #HeroISLFinal #HeroISL #BenChe

That will surely clinch the title for @ChennaiyinFC. Raphael Augusto with a curling effort past Gurpreet. #BENCHE #HeroISLFinal

54' Chaos in the Bengaluru box but Johnson bails them out and concedes a corner.

52' Udanta chips past Karanjeet into the back of the net, but the referee raises his flag and calls for offide. The goal does not stand.

51' Gregory Nelson dribbles past three defenders, dispathes a powerful shot and Sandhu saves.

49' Pressure from Bengaluru early in the second half, as they earn four corners at a go but can't produce anything effective.

Substitution for BFC : Dimas Delgado replaced by Victor Perez.

Second half kicks-off.

The fans have upped their banner game big time for the #HeroISLFinal!

A setback in the last minute of the first half, as Mailson's double puts Chennaiyin 2-1 up. We need a fightback and we have 45 minutes to do it! #BENCHE pic.twitter.com/a2tim2ennF

What a turnaround this at the Kanteerava!! Alaves scores twice from a corner. Set-pieces were once a strength, now a weakness for Bengaluru? #BENCHE #HeroISLFinal #LetsFootball #IndianFootball
— Naveen Peter (@peterspeaking) March 17, 2018

A great final so far. Brilliant first goal from @chetrisunil11 and now Mailson with the equaliser. Did great to ward off the attentions of Bheke and guide to the far corner. #LetsFootball @IndSuperLeague #BENCHE

Oh come on, Chhetri. Why'd you have to finish off the contest in 10 minutes?
Not cool, man.#BENCHE #HeroISLFinal

What a great start for #BengaluruFC. Incredible goal by Sunil Chhetri. Come on lads! Let's win this. #HeroISLFinal #LetsFootball

Wow .. impressed by the quality of football and the atmosphere. Indians have ISL and Sunil Chhetri, we have nothing #ISLFinal
— Ham☘️ (@JohanHamLiebert) March 17, 2018

9' WE HAVE THE LEAD! Chhetri with a diving header puts the Blues one up. Miku send Udanta clear with a flick on, and he finds the skipper in the box with a first-time cross! #BENCHE pic.twitter.com/1xp81xm7Lz
