I-League 2017:5 key players who will make a difference in the Kolkata derby

#2 Sony Norde

On his day, Sony Norde is as good as it gets in the I-League

The name says it all. The arrival of the Haiti international has changed the fortunes of the Mariners in the last couple of years. And he doesn’t seem to be in the mood to stop anytime soon. Coming back from an impressive display against Colombo FC, Sony Norde will be the key personnel for the Mariners. His wing play makes him dangerous in the channels and his goal scoring prowess provides an added edge to his gameplay.

This time the Haitian will have added motivation as he faces his national team counterpart Wedson Anselme donning the Red and Gold jersey. But the 27-year old is not inclined to acknowledge this match as a personal rivalry and is itching to put on his best show for the club. And the Mohun Bagan fans will be hoping to see this man replicate his last match’s form in this season’s first Kolkata derby.
