Indian Super Cup 2018, Semifinal : Mohun Bagan vs Bengaluru FC, 5 Talking Points

#3 Bagan cleverly slow down the game when under pressure

Two sides with very distinct approaches locked horns today. Bengaluru FC were extremely quick off the block and attempted to find the shortest route to the other goal. Mohun Bagan, on the other hand, were far more thoughtful when venturing forward.

As the game progressed, Bengaluru's dominance came to the fore and Bagan looked out of shape in their attempt to win back the ball. The structure which was rigid early on went missing as the minutes passed.

But credit to Bagan for holding their own. Their players were extremely clever and slowed down the play considerably when things seemed to be getting out of hand. Eze Kingsley, Nikhil Kadam, Cameron Watson and Kinowaki all played their part in slowing things down when Bengaluru attempted to up the tempo.
