Kerala Blasters fought tooth and nail in the second half as they had seven shots on target after the break in comparison to the first half but not taking their chances has been Kerala's entire season. It's something they have to work on for the next season as they head into the Indian club football season break in the summer.

JEAKSON ALMOST! The Indian midfielder with a bullet of a shot from outside the box that whistled past the far post. Kerala want that winner, Kerala want that semifinal spot. Bengaluru are reeling under pressure.

Bengaluru FC vs Kerala Blasters Live: BFC 1-0 KBFC 69'

ANOTHER CHANCE WASTED! This time it falls to Rahul KP on the other end after Bengaluru right-back Bhutia makes a poor back pass that falls to the Blasters forward. The local favourite, however, could only make a weak attempt for Gurpreet to collect easy.

Bengaluru FC vs Kerala Blasters Live: BFC 1-0 KBFC 67'

Udanta found acres of space on the counter as Chhetri ran in support. The winger went deep into the box before his final cross but Blasters defenders were back in the box to cut off the channel.

Bengaluru FC vs Kerala Blasters Live: BFC 1-0 KBFC 65

Giannou makes an attempt from outside the box after Hormipam feeds him with a ground ball from the midfield. His effort,however, was never bothering Gurpreet, who calmly collected the ball.

It's RoundGlass 1-0 Sreenidi in the other game as well but the latter has increased its intensity to find an equaliser.

60' The second half is being played at a much-higher intensity than the first 🤜🤛

Can @sreenidideccan turn their fortunes around?

Blasters' changes are yet to make an impact in the game as Bengaluru are looking comfortable with their defensive structure at the moment with two lines of four players each

Bengaluru FC vs Kerala Blasters Live: BFC 1-0 KBFC 58'

Blasters make two changes as Danish and Saheef come off for Jeakson Singh and Hormipam. Will be interesting to see how those changes the formation of Kerala Blasters.

Bengaluru FC vs Kerala Blasters Live: BFC 1-0 KBFC 57'

Bengaluru FC are resorting back to their patient short-passing build up as they look to kill off Blasters' momentum again. And it worked for now as Bengaluru just won a corner.

Bengaluru FC vs Kerala Blasters Live: BFC 1-0 KBFC 54'

It's one way traffic at the moment as Kerala Blasters go up in numbers. However, if they don't make this count very soon, it won't take long for Bengaluru to figure out that they are exposed at the back.

Rahul KP plays Diamantakos through on left flank but the Greek's attempted cross was blocked away for a corner by Jhingan.

Bengaluru FC vs Kerala Blasters Live: BFC 1-0 KBFC 50'

POWERFUL SHOT! Diamantakos tastes Gurpreet's goalkeeping with a strong shot from a freekick right at the goalkeeper, who parried it away for a corner. Kerala have come out with a purpose in the second half as they exert themselves on Bengaluru.

Bengaluru FC vs Kerala Blasters Live: BFC 1-0 KBFC 48'

What a wonderful long pass from Vibin from the midfiled! The midfielder plays Saurav Mandal clear on the right flank with that defence splitting pass but the wingers final attempt at the goal was deflected off for corner. Great transition there from both the sides.

Bengaluru FC vs Kerala Blasters Live: BFC 1-0 KBFC 46'

No changes at half time from either sides as Kerala see initial possession

Let's go out there and give it our all 🙌

Blasters assistant coach Ishfaque Ahmed is likely to make changes as players appear to come out from the tunnel for the second half.

It's worth noting that the difference between both the Southern rivals has been the ability to take their chances. Something we saw throughout this tournament. KBFC were punished for not being efficient against Sreenidi too, who ran away with the game after Blasters' couldn't make their early pressing count.

It's RoundGlass 1-0 Sreenidi Deccan in the other game too as the I-League champions are again playing party spoilers to the Hyderabad side, who finished runners-up in the second division to them.
