#2 Aibanha Dohling - The wall in Lajong's defence

Aibanha Dohling is a type of player one won't have any problems in identifying from the stands given his physique and unique hairstyle.

But, what has caught the eye more than his good looks and style is the way he has been playing this season.

Right from the first game of the season that Lajong played against Aizawl FC, Aibanha has been someone who has caught the eye to everyone.

He has unbeatable in the air and has a strong tackle which makes beating him a challenging task.

He is also one of the target men for Lajong during set pieces and finds himself in the right places during corners and free kicks.

He nearly scored today from a Samuel free-kick but saw his glancing header fisted away by Lalit Thapa.

Aibanha also has covered well for his colleagues in defence. Kenstar is suffering from a temporary dip in form and Aibanha has been brilliant in covering for his partner in the heart of the defence.

He kept Chidi quiet for most parts of the game, and the goal Chidi scored was due to Kenstar failing to mark him.
