Robin Singh, Josh Walker reach Bengaluru to witness BFC's title push at Kanteerava tonight
BENGALURU FC HAVE flown in two of their injured star players to watch the match against Salgaocar at the Kanteerava Stadium tonight.
Josh Walker and Robin Singh, both of whom have been out for the majority of this season due to injuries, have been brought in to witness their club take on Salgaocar at home in a contest where a win seals the I-League title for them.
Both the players landed in Bangalore earlier this morning and the fans were present at the airport to welcome them.

Both Robin and Walker were part of the team that lost the title to Mohun Bagan last season on this very ground. Subsequently both players have spoken out about the regret and hurt they still carry around from that night. Watching their team lift the title at Kanteerava tonight will be the best possible way to heal that wound.
