The 2022–23 season was the ninth season in Kerala Blasters FC's existence, as well as their ninth season in the Indian Super League. This season of the ISL witnessed the return of the home-away format of the matches similar to that of the 2019–20 Indian Super League season after a break of two years due to the COVID-19 pandemic in the country.[1]

In this season, the Blasters travelled to United Arab Emirates for their pre-season preparations,[2] but were forced to cancel all of their friendlies in UAE after AIFF received a ban from FIFA for 'third party intervention'.[3] But the ban was revoked by FIFA just ten days later and Blasters played one friendly each in UAE and in Kerala ahead of the league season. When the Blasters' main team flew to UAE for their pre-season preparations, the Blasters sent their reserve team for the 2022 Durand Cup,[4] and reached the quarter-finals after advancing to the knockout stage as group runner-ups, but was knocked out by Mohammedan SC from the tournament.[5] After the 2021–22 season, the Blasters only retained Marko Lešković and Adrián Luna as their foreigner players on two year contracts, and replaced the departed foreigners with Apostolos Giannou, Víctor Mongil, Ivan Kalyuzhnyi and Dimitrios Diamantakos.[6] The Blasters retained sixteen players from the previous squad and included seven local players from the state for the upcoming ISL season.[7]

Same like the previous season, the Blasters played the opening match of the ISL season on 7 October 2022,[8] but this time against East Bengal FC, which they won 3–1 at full-time.[9] After the opening match, the Blasters went on a three match losing streak,[10] but they came back to their winning ways against NorthEast United FC on 5 November by 0–3 away from home.[11] After the Blasters lost three consecutive matches after the opening match, the Blasters went on a five match winning streak,[12] which became a new club record, [13] and went on an eight match unbeaten streak,[14] until 8 January 2023, where the Blasters met Mumbai City FC, as the Islander handed the Blasters their worst defeat of the season by the score of 4–0.[15] Following the match against Mumbai City, the Blasters only won only two of their remaining league stage matches, and stood 5th in the table at the end of the regular season and qualified for the knockout stages of the tournament.[16] This was the first time the Blasters managed to qualify for the ISL knockout stages for a second consecutive year and it was their fourth appearance in the knockout stages in their history.[17]

With the arrival of a new format to ISL playoffs, the Blasters met arch-rivals Bengaluru FC in the first knockout stage match.[18] The match that took place on 3 March was subjected to immense controversy and is known for the Blasters' walk-off.[19] The Blasters players forfeited the match in the extra-time following the controversy around the legitimacy of the free-kick goal scored by the Sunil Chhetri for Bengaluru in the 96th minute of the extra-time.[20] When the referee rejected the argument of the players and staff members of the free-kick being taken before the Blasters players set themselves in their defensive positions, coach Ivan Vukomanović called-off the players from the pitch into the dressing room.[21] The match referee blew the final whistle and Bengaluru was awarded the win following a discussion with the match commissioner, resulting in the elimination of the Blasters from the tournament.[22] The Blasters management then appealed to the AIFF for the match to be replayed and demanded for the match referee Crystal John to banned from refereeing.[23] A separate panel of AIFF disciplinary committee was met three days later to decide on the sanctions on the Blasters for forfeiting the game,[24] and the disciplinary committee rejected the Blasters' protest to replay the match.[25] The AIFF disciplinary committee that met later that month imposed a fine of rupees 4 crores on the Blasters for abandoning the game and asked them to issue a public apology within a week, failing which the club would have to pay a fine of rupees 6 crores.[26] The disciplinary committee also imposed a 10-match ban on Vukomanović from taking part in any AIFF held tournaments along with a fine of rupees 5 lakhs, and directed the latter to issue a public apology within a week, same as that of the club, failing which the fine would be increased, doubling to rupees 10 lakhs.[27] The club and Vukomanović then issued their apologies and 'regrets' as directed by the AIFF DC as a part of their verdict.[28]

After the ISL season, the Blasters took part in the 2023 Indian Super Cup, which took place in Kozhikode, Kerala.[29] The Blasters were drawn in Group A alongside Bengaluru FC.[30] They won their first group stage match of the tournament on 8 April against RoundGlass Punjab FC by 3–1,[31] but lost the next match against Sreenidi Deccan FC by 2–0 just four days later.[32] They met again versus Bengaluru FC in a must-win match on 16 April, but the match ended in a 1–1 draw, and the Blasters were eliminated from the tournament that took place in their home state, and the Blasters ended yet another season without bagging a silverware.[33]

March

On 3 March, the Blasters played their knockout match in the playoffs against rivals Bengaluru FC, which was subjected to immense controversy.[211] The match went to extra-time after the first ninety minutes ended in a goalless draw. The match was subjected to controversy when the Bengaluru skipper Sunil Chhetri scored a 'free-kick' goal in the 96th minute. Following the goal, the Blasters players walked-off the pitch after coach Ivan Vukomanović called them off from the pitch. The incident occurred when Chhetri scored a free-kick before the Blasters players set themselves in their defensive positions.[212] The goal was given for Bengaluru and the Blasters players walked-off from the pitch in the Sree Kanteerava Stadium. The match was later stopped by the match officials and Bengaluru was awarded the win and qualification the semi-finals.[213] The Blasters later alleged that the referee asked Luna to move away from the ball and hence the free kick should have only been allowed following a whistle. The club sought a rematch and a ban on the referee Crystal John, who controlled the match.[214]

On 6 March, the AIFF disciplinary committee rejected the Blasters' protest to replay the controversial knockout stage match against Bengaluru FC and to ban the match referee Crystal John.[215] [216] The separate panel of the AIFF DC that met on the day rejected the case of the Blasters citing that the case did not fall in the exception mentioned in the Article 70.5 of the AIFF disciplinary code,[217] and further issued a notice to the Blasters for the violation of the Article 58.1 of the AIFF disciplinary code by walking-out of the match.[218]

On 7 March, the AIFF announced the draw for the 2023 Indian Super Cup that is to be held in Kerala from 3 April,[219] and the Blasters was drawn in the Group A alongside the rivals Bengaluru FC.[220] [221]

On 28 March, the Times of India sports journalist Marcus Megulhao reported that the Blasters would be penalized upto rupees 5 crores by the AIFF DC for walking-out of the playoff match against Bengaluru.[222] [223]

On 29 March, the Blasters announced that Adrián Luna will not be part of the Blasters squad for the upcoming Super Cup, as he was granted extended leave for personal reasons.[224] [225]

On 31 March, AIFF DC imposed a fine of rupees 4 crores on the Blasters for walking off the pitch in the playoff match against Bengaluru on 3 March, and also imposed a 10-match ban and a fine of rupees 5 lakhs on coach Ivan Vukomanović and directed both the parties to issue a public apology within a week.[226] The committee also stated that if the Blasters and Vukomanović fails to issue their public apologies within a week,[227] the fine would be raised to rupees 6 crores to the Blasters management and rupees10 lakhs to Vukomanović.[228]

The Blasters doubled their lead in the 54th minute when Nishu Kumar scored his first goal of the season from a ball by Sahal. Krishananda Singh pulled one back for Punjab in the 73rd minute, but Rahul K. P. who came in as a substitute for Diamantakos sealed the victory for the Blasters in the final seconds of the additional time from a miss pass from the Punjab player Juan Mera as the Blasters won the match 3–1 at full-time. This was the first ever victory for the club in the Indian Super Cup.[234] This game also marked the first team debut for the Blasters' goalkeeper Sachin Suresh.[235]
