#4 Dominance is meaningless if you can’t take your chances
Trending
It’s hard not to feel for Delhi Dynamos. They were by far, the better side on the night. Precision, persistence and dominance, the home side were all over the Blasters from minute one. This despite them going down to 10 men after just twenty-eight minutes. Even in extra time, when it seemed their energy levels were at an all-time low, Dynamos created three glorious chances. However, they crumbled under pressure.
The fact that they dominated Kerala with 10 men, but couldn’t finish the job, would have played on the minds of the penalty takers. Blasters keeper, Sandip Nandy made amends for his errors, unnerving the opposition players with his words. The shot-stopper made a nuisance of himself, every time Delhi’s players were about to take the spot kick.
Florent Malouda, Bruno Pelissari sent their kicks into orbit. Emerson Gomes then produced a spectacular save from Nandy. It gave Mohammed Rafique the chance to blast his side into the finals and he did it ever so calmly.
