#2 CK Vineeth
Trending
At the heart of Kerala’s late revival has been one of the state’s very own. Vineeth has scored five goals in the six games that he has played, to turn his team’s season around. This has been a welcome revival for Vineeth after he went through all of Kerala’s disappointing last season not scoring a single goal.
But this is a new, improved, revitalized Vineeth. His confidence was helped hugely by his magnificent performances in Bengaluru FC’s run to the AFC Cup final – he even scored the winner in the quarterfinal against Tampines Rovers. But he has hit another level for Kerala.
Vineeth’s goals have won Kerala seven points on their own as he has scored winners against Goa, Chennaiyin and NorthEast. He also scored Kerala’s only goal in their 1-1 draw with Atletico de Kolkata.
Although Nazon and Belfort have played their part, Kerala’s saviour this season has been Vineeth and for him, it will be extra special to make the final this year. The final will be with his home team and will be held on his home ground.
