L Kattimani: 7/10

The Goa goalie put in an impressive performance in the first half making 2 crucial saves. He made 2 more saves in the second half but was caught off guard as FC Pune City scored 2 goals in the second half.

Serinton Fernandes: 7/10

Fernandes was one of the better defenders for Goa. He made 6 tackles, the highest amongst all players, of which 4 were successful.

Bruno Pinheiro: 5.5/10

A lacklustre shift from the number 16, Pinheiro was one of the centre-backs in the 4-2-3-1 line up for FC Goa. Bruno did not contribute offensively for Goa and was clumsy in defence too.

Mohamed Ali: 6.5/10

The second centre-back performed relatively well as compared to Bruno. Although he had a quiet game, he made a crucial interception in the second half which prevented FC Pune City from going 1-0 before Alfaro opened the scoring for the away team.

N Das: 6/10

Like his fellow defenders, Das had a quiet game and couldn't prevent Alfaro and Co. from scoring twice. Das, like Bruno, was often caught off guard and could have put in a better performance.

A Jahouh: 8/10

Jahouh was one of the better players for FC Goa. He created a couple of chances in the first half for Brandon Fernandes and Lanzarote, but they were unable to put the ball at the back of the net. Jahouh also saw a yellow card in the first half of the match.

Edu Bedia 8/10

Like Jahou, Edu Bedia too had a solid game. Bedia attempted 90 passes in the game, of which 79 were successful. He also had a 73% passing accuracy in the final third which is highest amongst all the players.

M Desai: 6.5/10

Unlike Fernandes and Lanzarote, Desai had a relatively quiet game. He only created a couple chances in the first half and did not provide the impetus needed up front.

Lanzarote: 7.5/10

The number 12 started the game on a high, creating a flurry of chances early on. He put the Pune defenders under pressure and attempted 4 take-ons, 2 of which were successful.

Brandon Fernandes: 7.5/10

Like Lanzarote, Fernandes looked lively in the first half early on and looked set to put himself on the scoresheet. A lack of control in the final third combined with some amazing goalkeeping from Kaith meant that he could not score or assist for FC Goa.

F Corominas: 6/10

The striker had a very quiet game, a poor passing percentage in the final third and lack of composure, Coro's contribution offensively was close to zero today.

Substitutes:

Arana: 6.5/10

The Spanish midfielder was brought on for Jahouh in the 54th minute. He could not perform the task his manager sent him to do. Like his teammates he was quiet and was booked for a reckless challenge in the 83rd minute.

Adrian Colunga: 5/10

Colunga was brought on for Lanzarote in the 76th minute but could not influence the game. His presence did not intimidate FC Pune City defenders at all and they defended any chances created by Colunga with ease.
