Bengaluru FC head coach Gerard Zaragoza has called for focus on his team as they prepare for the Durand Cup semi-final against defending champions Mohun Bagan Super Giants at the Vivekananda Yuba Bharati Krirangan in Kolkata on Tuesday.
The Blues, who defeated Kerala Blasters 1-0 in the quarterfinals, will face the Mariners, who advanced on penalties after a 3-3 result against Punjab FC.
Bengaluru will depend on the form of Jorge Pereira Diaz, who has four goals and an assist in four games, and skipper Sunil Chhetri, who once again came off the bench for the Argentine attacker's winning goal against the Blasters.
Interestingly, the Blues have had seven different goalscorers in the tournament, including summer signings Edgar Mendez, Rahul Bheke and Alberto Noguera, and five of Bengaluru's goals have come from set-pieces.
