Sunil Chhetri’s controversial goal in extra-time proved pivotal as Bengaluru FC defeated Kerala Blasters to progress to the semifinals of the 2022-23 season of the Indian Super League. However, the decision sparked Blasters’ coach Ivan Vukomanovic into leading his team off the field, with the Blasters maintaining the referee’s call to allow the free-kick to stand was not legal. It resulted in a 1-0 win for Bengaluru, but plenty of questions that needed answering, especially regarding the legality of the goal.
