ISL 2018-19, Mumbai City FC 1-0 Bengaluru FC: 5 Talking Points

#1 The ISL has to wait longer for its own Invincibles

Sunil Chhetri hasn't scored in six ISL games now.

Bengaluru, throughout their first 11 games of the season, weren't perfect by any stretch of the imagination. But, they were doing just enough to get the job done, and were showing immense spirit late in games, to win them points.

The Blues have won nine of their 27 points this season, with goals after the 75th minute. Those late moments of games have seen Bengaluru score six of their 18 goals.

The Blues, though, do realise that their performance levels must be higher as we enter the business end of the season. Their big players need to step up soon, though.

Sunil Chhetri has not scored in six ISL games now. Dimas Delgado's performances have waned, his set-piece deliveries on Sunday were shocking.

Juanan and Albert Serran have looked less secure at the back, with Bengaluru's high defensive line being exploited far more frequently than it was in the initial phase of the season.

With a tough test coming up against NorthEast United in just three days, Bengaluru need to lift - both performances and spirit.
