ATKMB 1-1 NEUFC

Again and again ATKMB is playing with 4 strikers. Which is the reason that they didn’t get this win.

The pillars of the back line Tiri and Sandesh was not playing cool. Reinforce the defense with mid field then. Chances will be created and goals will surely come.

But I don’t understand why this ultra pressing football is becoming the only option for this ATKMB team.

Pronoy should be at the starting 11. Edu should also start. Manvir and Marci should be dropped.

For NEUFC they got one lucky chance and capitalized that.

Let’s see what happens in the next leg.

Match Preview: Mumbai City FC Vs FC Goa

Mumbai City came from behind twice to deny FC Goa the advantage in the first leg. Mumbai has a full-strength squad to choose from, Goa has injury concerns.

With the tie well-poised at 2-2, Mumbai City FC will square off against FC Goa in the second-leg of the 2020-21 Indian Super League’s first semifinal in Bambolim on Monday.

The team coming out on top at the GMC Stadium will book a place in the ISL 2020-21 final and has a chance to compete for a 2022 AFC Cup qualifiers spot, which is awarded to the winner of the playoffs.

MCFC came from behind twice to deny FCG the advantage in the tie with a draw at the Fatorda Stadium on Friday. The Islanders, who are known to dominate opponents right from the start, were struggling early on during the first-leg.

Meanwhile, Lobera’s counterpart Juan Ferrando has several injury concerns. Seriton Fernandes and Princeton Rebello were both stretchered off in the last outing. With Brandon Fernandes already out, the Gaurs might be a bit short on Indian options.

The away-goal rule has been scrapped this season. If the second-leg ends on level terms as well, the teams will move into extra-time and then penalties, if needed.

Mumbai City FC

Head coach Sergio Lobera will have the services of Amey Ranawade in the upcoming clash after he was suspended for the first leg. It will be interesting to see if he replaces Mehtab Singh in the backline. Hernan Santana could be back in the lineup as well for the Islanders.

FC Goa

Princeton Rebello and Seriton Fernandes are possible injury concerns for the Gaurs as they had to deal with some heavy tackles during the match. Ivan Gonzalez and Alberto Noguera will be back for the Gaurs after serving their suspensions.
