#4 Reckless Mumbai tackling
In the heat of the moment, Mumbai's players got a little too anxious to win the ball back, especially the Indians. Aibor Khongjee was the first in the book for a bad tackle on Prabir Das, followed by Sena Ralte on Pritam Kotal, and Sehnaj Singh on Javi Lara.
But, the moment that turned the game for Mumbai was Pronay Halder's moment of madness. With a yellow card already given to him, it didn't make any sense to dive in, especially when the opponent was facing his own goal.
In many ways, Halder’s sending off was a huge fillip for Kolkata and also disrupted Alexandre Guimaraes’s game plan as he had just brought on Sony Norde and Jackichand Singh before the sending off.
In theory, it sounded a foolproof plan, to hit Kolkata on the break with the pace of Norde and Jacki, but Halder going off meant that both of them had to be more subdued and disciplined, in carrying out their defensive responsibilities.
