All ATK needed coming into this match was not less than three points, to keep up the fight for the top-four spots.

However, it didn’t come. As a result, ATK will now need to get at least seven points from their remaining three matches to have any chance to finish within the top four positions. They will also need to keep an eye on others.

From a neutral perspective, it’s almost impossible. They may get a win against Delhi Dynamos in their last match. But before that, they will have to face FC Goa and Mumbai City FC, the second and third-placed teams in the table respectively as of now.

It’s never easy to block Ferran Corominas in an away match and ATK will need to blaze all the guns.

The task will not be easier against FC Mumbai City also. Both Goa and Mumbai eye a win against ATK to secure their respective places.
