Katsumi Yusa is the soul of the Mohun Bagan team

Another man who has by now featured already got a whiff of the passion in a Kolkata derby, Katsumi Yusa can be hailed as a veteran of the Green and Maroon brigade. A generally cool customer, the slick attacking player can don a number of roles, making him a critical player for his side.

Be it on the wings or as a number 10, Katsumi is agile enough to fit into any position seamlessly. The outcome of the match will be largely dependent on the form of this diminutive Japanese player. If he manages to grab a hold of the game, then it will be a torrid time for the East Bengal defence to contain Mohun Bagan. His precision passing and quick movements can often put the opposition in a frenzied mood. Mohun Bagan would be looking up to this man to make the most of his experience.
