Top 5 moments in Kerala Blasters FC history

#1 Beating Chennaiyin FC to enter the finals of the inaugural campaign

Pearson's

extraordinary goal send Kerala Blasters FC into the final of the inaugural campaign

Kerala Blasters FC were in a commanding position after taking a three-goal lead into the second leg against Chennaiyin FC in the playoffs.

Ishfaq Ahmed, Ian Hume and Sushant Mathew scored at Kochi to leave the Blues with a massive task to overcome in the second leg.

Things became untidy for Kerala Blasters when Mikael Silvestre headed the ball into the back of the net to give a chance to the hosts.

Defender Sandesh Jhingan scored an own goal in the 76th minute, and it was followed by Jeje Lalpekhlua's stoppage-time equalizer to level the aggregate score 3-3.

The match would have been out of Kerala's eyesight had Marco Materazzi converted the spot-kick in the extra-time.

When both the camps and the crowd were settling out for the penalty shoot-out, Stephen Pearson's extraordinary run to beat three defenders and find the back of the net paved way for Kerala Blasters to enter the finals of the inaugural campaign by winning the semi-finals tie.

However, things did not go in the way of Kerala after the side had conceded a last minute goal in the finals against ATK. Albeit, the Manjappada would be proud of some of the results en route to the finals of the Indian Super League.
