Flop: Rana Gharami
During the first two games, both of Delhi’s goals came with Rana Gharami turning the provider. In the first match against FC Pune City, Gharami scored with a stunning shot from yards out. Against ATK, Rana provided the assist to Pritam Kotal.
However, Rana had a bad day at the office on Saturday. He had a normal outing and couldn’t leave an impression, which is a bad sign. Delhi already have Gianni Zuiverloon in their team as a central defender and if Gharami couldn’t impress in the future games, he could well be replaced by coach Josep Gombau.
Gharami was at fault during Vineeth’s goal. During the corner, he marked Vineeth at the near post. But when the ball came to the Kerala forward, Gharami could do nothing as Vineeth easily avoided his marker and put himself on the score sheet. Also, during Kerala’s attack, Gharami couldn’t maintain his position and lost the ball too many times.
