#FanSpeak: Everyone is talking about yesterday's AFC Cup semi-final victory

IT IS AFTER A VERY LONG TIME that a footballing event has brought such a huge storm in terms of discussion and talking points in the country. Bengaluru went on to become the first Indian club to make it to the finals of the AFC CUP. All those following the coverage and news went crazy with joy and expressed their thrill via social media.

Not just those involved in football but many other fraternity's well known personnel also shared their best wishes for the triumph of Indian football. Those include Rohan Bopanna, Cricket commentator Harsha Bhogle, even fellow football clubs like Mohemmedan Sporting. TFG compiled some of the famous personalities and some passionate fans' tweets that caught our attention.
