Zob Ahan captain Morteza Tabrizi led from the front in what was an utterly dominant display from the home side.

In total Zob Ahan had 20 shots on goal in this match, 9 of them on target. In contrast, Aizawl had just one, which they scored from.

A fair few of those attempts came from Tabrizi who was constantly popping up in the box. He was guilty of not making the most of his chances early on as he headed quite a few efforts straight at the Aizawl keeper Avilash Paul, but he made up for it in the end with his two late goals.

Aizawl had no answer to the threat posed by him along with Kiros from the left and Syed Reza Hosseini on the right. Tabrizi's movement and dominance in the air caused Aizawl all sorts of problems.
