Late in the game at the Fatroda Stadium, with FC Goa having caught up to Bengaluru FC's lead from the first leg, Sunil Chhetri came in clutch once again for the Blues on Sunday and scored the winner to send them to the Indian Super League finals, winning the semi-finals 3-2 on aggregate, though they lost 2-1.
BFC came into this game with a healthy 2-0 lead on aggregate from the first leg of the semi-finals but lost it thanks to second-half goals by FC Goa's Borja Herra and Armando Sadiku.
At 90+2 on the clock, Namgyal Bhutia sent the ball to Sunil Chhetri, who scored his 14th goal of the season to send BFC fans into delirium.
BFC will now face either Jamshedpur or Mohun Bagan, with JFC leading by 2-1 into the second leg.
JFC's victory will mean the finals will be at the Sree Kanteerva stadium, while a win for Mohun Bagan will take the finals to the Salt Lake Stadium.
