HITS


MACPHERLIN OMAGBEMI DUDU (FC GOA):

Dudu was outstanding during this match. He scored a brilliant hat-trick in this match. He beat Subrata Pal thrice very cleverly. He would have scored more goals if he was not benched in the 70th minute.

FLOPS

ROMEO FERNANDES (FC GOA):

Though Romeo Fernandes didn’t let down his team fully in this match, he needs to improve, specially in his finishing. He could have scored easily in the 26th minute but failed in his attempt.

DARREN O’DEA (MUMBAI CITY FC):

It was the worst day for all the Mumbai City players. Nobody could perform even to their monimum capability. But Darren O’Dea was the worst as he failed to tackle the hosts’ strikers. He never looked comfortable in in this match.
