AFC Cup 2018: New Radiant SC vs Bengaluru FC - 5 Talking Points

Ralte saves Bengaluru's blushes

Lalthuammawia Ralte was exceptional under the bar.

He may be Gurpreet Singh Sandhu’s understudy, he may have conceded two goals in this game, but Lalthuammawia Ralte showed yet again, why he is one of the best upcoming goalkeepers in the country.

Had it not been for Ralte, Bengaluru FC could very well have lost by a much bigger margin on the day. To put things into perspective, New Radiant SC took a total of 17 shots, out of which eight were on target.

The Blues were perhaps lucky to not concede another one, as Ralte was chipped in the second half, only for the ball to go on and hit the bar, but the diminutive goalkeeper showed his class between the sticks in this game.
