FC Bengaluru United lose their final game and Super Division Title

FCBU Media 


In their final league game, FC Bengaluru United slumped to their first defeat in the ongoing BDFA Super Division. The 1-3 loss to Kickstart FC put paid to any chances FCBU had of successfully defending their title. The two-time BDFA champions needed a win or a draw to get ahead of Sporting Club De Bengaluru, the current table toppers.


FC Bengaluru United had their chances throughout the game but failed to capitalize on them. Kickstart FC were the first to get on the scoreboard in the 50th minute off a corner. Nineteen minutes later a moment of brilliance from Irfan Yadwad, who had missed a series of easy chances, saw FC Bengaluru United equalize. However, a defensive error in the 72nd minute saw Kickstart FC edge 2-1 ahead. Six minutes later FC Bengaluru United earned another chance to equalize but against the run of play, Yadwad missed the penalty shot. Mohamed Kdouh scored off the rebound only for it to be declared offside. FCBU scrapped hard but were unable to convert any of the chances they created, Kickstart managing to sneak in one more goal, before end of play.

Bengaluru fail to break the deadlock as they play out a goalless draw against Roots

BFC Media


Bengaluru FC played out a 0-0 draw against Roots FC, in a BDFA Super Division League encounter, at the Bangalore Football Stadium, on Tuesday. Roots FC’s resolute backline marshaled by goalkeeper Arun H, kept the Blue Colts at bay, and saved a point for the hosts. 


The first half saw both sides battle for possession early on with the Blue Colts eventually finding the right rhythm. The first chance of the game fell to BFC midfielder Kamalesh P in the 28th minute, who rounded the ’keeper and slotted the ball into an empty goal, but referee Suresh Devraj, upon consultation with his assistant, ruled the goal out for a foul in the build-up.


Close to the end of the first half, Bekey Oram put in a low cross into the 18-yard-box, but Monirul Molla and Ankith Padmanabhan failed to capitalise as the ball deflected off Roots midfielder Gautam Rajesh, before being cleared away. 


Into the second period, the Blue Colts put the pressure on the RFC backline and kept the ball in the opposition's half. The biggest chance of the game came in the 68th minute when Ankith found Molla unmarked in the box, but the striker’s effort from distance went wide of the frame. 


The rub of the green failed to favour Bengaluru when another chance went begging in the closing stages. Felixson’s cross into a crowded penalty area found substitute Vinith Venkatesh unmarked. But Venkatesh, having struck the ball with his first touch, saw his effort come crashing back into play off the crossbar. Ankith managed to get another shot away on the rebound, but it was easy pickings for Arun. 


The Blue Colts kept pushing for the opener, but the Roots backline remained stubborn and saw the game out. BFC now sit in 4th place with 16 points on the board. Bengaluru next face ADE FC on October 14th, at the same venue.

United play out goalless draw with Jawahar Union

FCBU Media 


FC Bengaluru United were held to a 0-0 draw by Jawahar Union in the ongoing BDFA Super Division League 2021-22. While FCBU played attacking football and had a few chances, they failed to convert any of them.


The defending champions began aggressively, taking control of possession right away. FCBU looked to create openings and attack while JU looked content to sit back and play the defensive game. This was the trend that continued right through the first half. One of the attacking plays by FCBU was a corner taken by Asraf Mondal that was successfully dealt with by the JU defence - this in turn was volleyed by Batskhemlang Thangkhiew only to have it blocked by the JU defence again.


The second half mirrored the first half – try as they might, FCBU were unable to penetrate the JU defence and close any of their attempts. Some of their closest chances came in the dying minutes of the game, a cross from Subash Singh on the right set up a clear shot for Luka Majcen, only to see the Slovenian miss an easy header chance; Denil Rebello’s powerful shot on goal was blocked by the JU goalkeeper.

Bengaluru FC run riot against Bangalore United

Bengaluru FC Media 

Attacker Thoi Singh put on a show at the Bangalore Football Stadium on Monday, as his Bengaluru FC side ran out 4-0 winners over Bangalore United FC, in the BDFA Super Division League. While Thoi found his name on the scoresheet twice, Monirul Molla and Omega Vanlalhruaitluanga added two more to seal the points for the Blue Colts.


The Blue Colts started the game on the front foot, creating chances aplenty in the early stages. The opening goal came only ten minutes in, when the ball fell kindly to Thoi in the box and his low driven shot had too much on it for BUFC custodian Nishit Nair to handle as it slipped through his grasp to give the Blue Colts the lead. 


Bengaluru continued to pile the pressure and almost doubled their lead when Harpreet Singh nodded the ball home from a well worked set-piece, only for it to be ruled offside. Soon after, Thoi was found in the box by Rakesh Likmabam whose low cross was converted by the winger on the bounce to make it 2-0 in the 33rd minute. 


Thoi continued to impress, turning provider when he ran past a number of BUFC defenders down the left flank before sending in an inch-perfect cross for Molla, who finished with aplomb at the stroke of half time. 


On the other side of the break, Bengaluru continued to push and came close in the opening stages when Shighil ran at the BUFC defenders and chipped a shot goalward, only to be pushed away by Nishit. The Blue Colts were gifted a fourth when miscommunication in the BUFC box allowed Omega the chance to pounce and bury his strike past a hapless Nishit. 


Striker Rahul Raju had the opportunity to make it five for the Blue Colts in the last ten minutes of the game, but his shot was dragged just wide off the post keeping the score at 4-0.


The Blue Colts next face Young Challengers FC at the same venue, on Thursday, December 23rd.

FC Bengaluru United beat Kickstart 1-0 in hard fought-clash

 FCBU Media 


In what could be described as season’s title-defining clash, giants FC Bengaluru United (FCBU) and Kickstart FC confronted under the sunny skies and before the cheering supporters at the Bengaluru Football Stadium. In the end, FCBU carved out a hard-fought 1-0 win over Kickstart FC. 


Both teams had their moments in this see-saw game before Luka Majcen scored in the 82nd minute to give defending champions FCBU a well-deserved win. 


Both were slow to get off the blocks – but they gradually began to up the ante, creating half chances and trying to wrest possession. Luka, Aenem K Jurwa and Batskhemlang Thangkhiew were bright in attack for FCBU, while James Singh and Kinshuk Debnath were strong at the back. Soon after the water break in the first half, both teams came close to scoring – two chances for Luka Majcen were saved by the Kickstart goalkeeper, while FCBU goalkeeper Srijith put in a spectacular save to keep Kickstart at bay.


Coming out in the second half, both teams went on the attack right away, the game moving from one counterattack to the other. In the 55th minute a corner from FCBU taken by Aenam was set up for Luka but he was unable to see it through. This was followed by Kickstart failing to make the most of their freekick – as the pendulum continued to constantly swing. 


FC Bengaluru United were relentless in their charge; in the 76th minute a brilliant corner taken by Bedashwar was beautifully set up for Denil, whose shot just hit the post. FCBU’s dogged persistence finally paid off; in the 82nd minute, Kynsailang Khongsit’s smartly placed cross to Luka was adroitly controlled by the Slovenian striker and finished off in a thumping goal.


A thrilling win for FCBU that keeps their unbeaten run intact and sets them up well for the remainder of the tournament.

Bengaluru FC beat ASC, record second win of the league

Bengaluru FC Media 

Bengaluru FC returned to winning ways in the BDFA Super Division League with a convincing 4-0 defeat of ASC & Center FC at the Bangalore Football Stadium, in Bengaluru, on Tuesday. Goals from Rahul Raju, Jagdeep Singh, Lalthangliana and Robin Yadav sealed the points for the Blue Colts, who now have eight points from five games in the Division, with two wins, two draws and one loss.


The Blue Colts started the game on the front foot, dominating proceedings for the first 20 minutes, coming close on multiple occasions. A flurry of corners went begging as Bengaluru pushed forward in search of an opener. ASC had a chance of their own in the 32nd minute when Rajak Ahamed took a swipe from distance, but Dipesh Chauhan watched it go wide of his frame. 


Ambling towards the break, the Blue Colts broke the deadlock when Lalthangliana’s shot came off the post and fell kindly for Rahul. The striker controlled the rebound and lifted it into the roof of the net to give the Blue Colts the lead. 


ASC & Center came close to finding a response when a freekick found Saroj Rai unmarked in the box, only 15 minutes into the second period. His header towards goal, however, was collected by Dipesh without fuss. Bengaluru doubled their lead when ASC ’keeper Mutum Raj Singh came off his line in an attempt to dispossess Rahul. The striker turned away from goal and set up Jagdeep, whose shot from outside the box floated its way home to double the Blue Colts’ advantage. 


Bengaluru picked up the pace in the final ten minutes of the game as Bhoite sent on Monirul Molla and Vinith Venkatesh in place of Edwin Rossario and Rahul. Lalthangliana found the net soon after and on the break after Omega Vanlalrhuaitluanga’s inch-perfect pass fed the striker through. Lalthangliana made no mistake, rounding the keeper before rolling the ball into an empty net.


The Blue Colts added a fourth on the night on the stroke of 90 minutes when Jagdeep turned provider, lifting a cross over the ASC defence for Robin to attack and nod past Mutum Raj to make it 4-0 and seal the points.

FCBU record seventh win on the trot beating BUFC 3-0

FCBU Media 

FC Bengaluru United (FCBU) recorded their seventh win on the trot with a 3-0 victory over Bangalore United FC (BUFC). Luka Majcen scored a brace while Batskhemlang Thangkhiew chipped in with an early goal as the defending champions shone with a clinical performance in their BDFA Super Division League game under sunny skies at the Bangalore Football Stadium.

Both teams started slowly, but it wasn’t long before FC Bengaluru United hit their stride. In the 9th minute Ashraf Mondal’s long ball to Bedashwor Singh was passed to Kynsailang Khongsit whose cross to Batskhemlang was neatly chested by him into the right bottom corner of the goal to put FC Bengaluru United 1-0 up. That goal spurred FC Bengaluru United; they started to attack with greater consistency. Their efforts paid off in the 25th minute - Kynsailang’s cross to Luka was cheekily backheeled by the Slovenian striker to push FC Bengaluru United up 2-0.

FC Bengaluru United continued to attack in the second half, while not allowing BUFC to push through with any of their half chances. The defending champions were quick on the counterattack, with BUFC unable to penetrate the FC Bengaluru United defense. In the 58th minute, a smart run from the half-line was set up smartly for Luka to score FC Bengaluru United’s third goal of the match and seal a well-deserved win for them.
