Bengaluru FC striker Miku has revealed that he hopes this year’s ISL final will be different from the last after his side sealed their spot in the final with a 4-2 aggregate win over Northeast United. Sunil Chhetri & Co. will face high-flying FC Goa in the final of the 2018-19 season of the ISL.

Carlos Cuadrat’s Bengaluru FC sealed a place in their second consecutive final of the Indian Super League (ISL) with a 3-0 win against NorthEast United FC in the second leg of their semi-final encounter at the Sree Kanteerava Stadium in Bengaluru on Monday.  The Blues were made to work hard against Eelco Schattorie’s side who were pegged back by a 72nd-minute goal from Miku. 

Further strikes from Dimas Delgado and Sunil Chhetri led the home team to a deserved win as they overturned the 2-1 defeat from the first leg. The aggregate score read 4-2 in favour of Bengaluru, who will shift their focus on winning the ISL title on in the final against FC Goa on Sunday. However, star striker Miku hopes that luck will be with his team this year as compared to the last one.

"It’s an amazing sensation. The second year in a row we’ve won the regular league and also reached the final. We hope this season, we have a different final from the last season. We are very happy today. We have a great team. Everybody worked very hard. NorthEast United FC had a great season but in the end, there can only be one team and it is us.

"Amazing! Amazing support! This season, they will travel to Mumbai to see the final. We hope to have a great crowd there because we need a lot of help. They are our 12th player and they know that," Miku told reporters post the win against NEUFC.

Sunil Chhetri & Co. will go up against the high-flying Gaurs at the Andheri Sports Complex on Sunday.
