Hyderabad's foreigners have started clicking and their Indian players were always attacking and good. Once Roland joins them they will be even more menacing
Manuel Roca outclassed Csaba in midfield... Then their faster better players kept CFC at bay.. Ashish Rai , what a terrific player... He is always there for the cross in attack, outruns Chhangte to win the ball in defence, Rahim Ali could not get past him from that side, takes the ball outclassing 3 CFC players.. He has to be there in the national team...
Ashish rai is excellent. His work rate, stamina, first touch is amazing. Only thing that i notice is he easily commits and gets beaten, if he improves that then RB is his in NT ahead of Prabir/kotal/seriton/behke/nishu etc
I can't seem to find the clip but there was a moment when Ashish Rai control a long ball directly on his chest and then flicked it through his chest to the other side of his body turned around and then dribbled past a few players. I have not seen an Indian player do that! Almost like Marcelo..Also being a right back he took an amazing left footed shot which hit the crossbar. I don't think the current NT has such technical players!
@Ronny: I seem to remember that Ashish Rai displayed an almost similar skill in the match against vs East Bengal--controlling a long ball and then doing a sort of no-look flick to turn the ball to the other side of his body to completely outfox his marker and make a darting run towards the opposition half. Terrific skills for an Indian youngster and even the commentator was mighty impressed!
