I-League 2018-19: Mohun Bagan vs East Bengal- 5 Indian players to watch out in the Kolkata Derby

#1 Joby Justin (East Bengal)

Joby Justin's overhead kick proved to be the fine difference in East Bengal's previous encounter against Mohun Bagan

Blessed with a blistering pace and astounding dribbling skills, Jobby Justin's skillset matches that of a winger. However, it is his ability of being a fox in the box and being at the right place at the right time that sets him apart as a striker.

The Keralite might have missed a lot of sitters in the league so far, but when the team requires him the most, he never disappoints. This can be exemplified by the fact that he scored an overhead kick in the previous Kolkata Derby when the scoreline was level on terms.

As mentioned before, SK Faiaz was wreaking havoc on the East Bengal defense and, his overhead kick jolted Mohun Bagan's attacking plans at the stroke of half-time. Another weapon in his arsenal, dropping down deep and drawing defenders to free the midfielders up front unmarked can come handy.

Jobby Justin has already bagged 3 assists by doing the same, and found the back of the net seven times with his predatory striking skills. This Sunday, he will be raring to add more goals and assists in his tally.
