#4 Mumbai have great options down the left wing
Trending
In Defederico and Jackichand Singh, Mumbai have two wingers who love to take on defenders, push defences and score goals. This point was on show today, as the Argentine, who has 2 caps for his national team, was a handful for Pune’s defence. He repeatedly cut in and put in crosses, and kept dragging his markers all over the pitch. In the end, his efforts were rewarded as he scored a stunning piledriver.
The goal won the Ranbir Kapoor owned franchise the match, and him the man of the match award. Jackichand Singh came on for him in the dying minutes of the game, but he continued from where Defederico left off, by cutting open the Pune defence and almost scoring a 2nd goal in stoppage time.
And we haven’t even seen Sony Norde in action. If Mumbai do make it to the playoffs this time, these players will have to make a huge contribution to the cause.
