As Kolkata braces for a high-voltage clash in the Indian Super League 2024-25 Final, all eyes turn to the iconic Salt Lake Stadium where Mohun Bagan Super Giants (MBSG) will face off against Bengaluru FC. The stage is set for a blockbuster evening, with a packed VYBK expected to be a sea of Green and Maroon, passionately backing the home side, Mohun Bagan.
However, Bengaluru FC won’t be short on star power either. In their corner stands none other than Olympic and World Champion javelin thrower Neeraj Chopra — a JSW Sports athlete, representing the ownership group of Bengaluru FC.
Showing his support through the club’s official Twitter/X handle, Chopra shared a heartfelt message for the team:
“Hi, this is Neeraj Chopra, sending my regards to Bengaluru FC. Many congratulations to the team for reaching the ISL Final.”
“I wish them all the best and hope they play well and win the title,” he added.
Motivation hurled straight into our hearts! 💙
