#4 FC Pune City lacked the morale to beat Atletico
It took almost 20 minutes for the visitors to register their first shot on target. Atletico were eating them up and Pune had surrendered meekly. The fact that their playoff chances had vanished made this match insignificant for Habas’ men. Consequently, their drooping shoulders reflected poorly on the team spirit.
The Spanish coach could not egg on his players to provide a better display. It was all too lackadaisical from the away side as they were not inclined to go for the kill throughout the 90 minutes. ATK goalkeeper, 37-year-old Dani, was playing his first game of the tournament but the veteran hardly made any saves in the match. It was all too easy for the home side.
