Iranian players are miles ahead in technique. Itvwas an away game hence they played defensively. I am wondering what will happen in away game for mumbai
Really disappointing performance. They introduced so many of their bench players and still managed to keep their shape well and thwart us out. Disappointing misses in second half we had a couple of good chances and we squandered. We can at this point say we have no hopes against other 2 teams. We cannot even play against a mid tier Iranian team with just 1 foreign player. I will still say Des got it right in terms of getting the team setup. This team is defensively weak and will get punished against other teams. They had majority of the ball but could not do anything with it. Crowd support almost felt nil. I think the plastic fans will only show up if Neymar plays.
Worst thing about todays match was the atmosphere. Embarrassing to play infront of empty stadium and from the Tv visuals it looked like away team had more fans.
Those who criticise this loss should think the last year Mohan bagan defeate in AFC Cup. We are no where near to fight back and come back in a game in this level, but Mumbai performance improved compared to last year. They created many chance, although they won two in last edition. They lack a main Stricker and replacement for Ahmed jahio
