The game marks the beginning of a new era under the Roca regime, as well as, hopefully, a new era for Indian football.
The build-up to the game has seen Bengaluru FC receive words of encouragement from rival fans and clubs, sports personalities and even the sports minister; BFC are not only representing Bengaluru and their loyal fans, but also all of India.
This is the first game that Bengaluru FC will be playing in front of their home fans this season, after the first leg of the quarter-finals against Singapore’s Tampines Rovers was played behind-closed-doors due to a security issue.
Bengaluru FC will defend their I-League crown in January next year when the first rounds of the league commence, followed by the Federation Cup later in the year. A positive result in the semi-final game against Johor will set things rolling for the club.
