Hero ISL 2021-2022

 The Indian Super League (ISL) is a men's professional football league, which is the highest level league in Indian football system. It is organised by All India Football Federation and their commercial partners Football Sports Development Limited. For sponsorship ties with Hero MotoCorp, it is officially called Hero Indian Super League.

The league currently comprises 11 clubs. Each season of the tournament generally runs from November to March. During the league stage of the competition, each club plays against all the other clubs in a round-robin style. At the end of the league stage, the team with the most points gets declared the Premiers and presented with a trophy named League Winners Shield, and the top four clubs qualify for the play-offs. The season then culminates with the ISL Final to determine the Champions who are presented with the ISL Trophy.

  • Each club have the option of signing a minimum of five and a maximum of seven foreign players, but unlike the previous season, there should be at least one overseas player who hails from an AFC–affiliated country.

  • The number of substitutions allowed has been increased from 3 players to 5 players.

  • On 27 September 2020, East Bengal joined the league as an expansion team and thus became the 11th team in the league.
