I-League 2017 - DSK Shivajians 1-2 East Bengal - 5 Talking Points

Plaza is deadly up front

#3 Young guns fail to impress

Ruidas has flattered to deceive

The likes of Abhinas Ruidas and Nikhil Poojary are well-known in the Indian football circuit, but they are yet to prove their mettle. Yesterday, the former did not feature but the latter did and looked completely out of sorts in a midfield that seemed to be playing on a different level than him.

He did not help out his defence either and had to be substituted on the hour mark.

Robin Singh, who made his name while featuring for East Bengal back in 2010, had a horror show on his return as well, and did nothing of note other than score a goal which was ruled out due to a foul on Nirmal Chettri.

His laboured first touch and inaccurate passing broke down many counter attacks, and he will have to completely change his style if he wants to start ahead of the mercurial Plaza upfront.
