Indian Super Cup 2018 : Mumbai City FC vs East Bengal, 5 Talking Points

#3 Emana stuns East Bengal with a sublime free-kick

Emana proved his worth

In the run of play, Mumbai City FC took the lead courtesy a sublime free kick from Achille Emana. It was all East Bengal for the first 20 minutes of the game as they ran riot and dominated proceedings.

But after Sahil Tavora was brought down outside the box, Mumbai's creative linchpin sensed an opportunity to stun EB. Emana's curling effort nestled right into the top right corner as a keeper, Ubaid struggled to get any contact on the ball.

The free-kick lacked pace but Emana managed to get an unreal amount of swing on the ball as it swerved from the far right before it knocked the post and went into the goal. That had quality written all over it.
