Inter Kashi FC ratings (By Saikat Sengupta)
Catch Every Update, Anytime, Anywhere
Shubham Dhas – 5/10
After Albino failed to keep even a single clean sheet in the first few games, Dhas was given a chance to start tonight, and he had a match to forget. He made three saves but conceded three goals as Inter Kashi fell 3-0 to SC Delhi.
Dinliana Renthlei – 6/10
He played 78 minutes before being subbed off. He was playing in the right flank and was completely outplayed by Aimen and Manoj Mohammed.
Pratik Chaudhari – 6.5/10
The veteran Indian defender had the joint most touches tonight. Despite SC Delhi boasting an xG of 2.18 where they took 17 shots and 7 on target, Pratik ensured that the scoreline still remains respectable as he made 2 crucial tackles.
Nischal Chandan – 5.5/10
Another disappointing performance from Chandan, who had just one tackle in the match. He was up against elite strikers like Fortes and Rodriguinho, who completely outplayed the Indian defender.
Leewan Castanha – 5/10
SC Delhi made too many attacking openings from the right flank as Juan Peña ran riot. After a frustrating outing, he was subbed off to make way for Manvir Singh, who came in as an attacking change.
Wayne Vaz – 6/10
The Indian midfielder played for an hour and looked completely clueless in a 4-1-4-1 setup. His passing accuracy was brilliant and he gave three passes into the final third.
Rosenberg Gabriel – 6/10
The former Sreenidi striker was deployed as a winger tonight and failed to impress much. Manoj Mohammed hugged the touchline and kept Gabriel quiet tonight.
Jitendra Singh – 7/10
Jitu was omnipresent tonight. He was the silver lining in the cloud for Vaz Pinto as he was seen helping the team in defence and creating chances upfront from the centre of the park.
Sumeet Passi – 7/10
Another captain’s performance from Passi, who created a lot of chances. Passi made three chances tonight, the most by any player in the match. But the Kashi strikers failed to capitalise.
Thoi Singh – 6/10
A disappointing game from the young Indian winger who had a few touches tonight into the opposition box and won two fouls. He took one shot that went off target.
Ayush Chhikara – 6/10
Ayush had a lot of chances to score but he failed to take even a single shot on target despite Kashi boasting an expected goal ratio above 1. He took three shots but his shot accuracy was pretty poor tonight.
Substitutes:
Sourav Das – 6/10
Das was brought in early to make an impact in the midfield when the score was 1-0. But he failed to anchor the midfield closely as the Phoenix went on to score two late goals.
Karthik Panicker – 5/10
He had 12 minutes of regulation time to make an impact but Panicker was seen nowhere as Kashi conceded another late goal in the 88th minute as the Brazilian striker made it 3-0
Aphaoba Singh – 6/10
His presence did bring a renewed sense of purpose and rejuvenated the team, but Kashi failed to count their chances upfront as they fell 3-0 to SC Delhi.
VS Sreekuttan – 6/10
Sree was brought in late to make any impact in the match.
Manvir Singh – 6/10
Manvir was brought in too late to make any impact in the match.
SC Delhi ratings (By Preethi)
Nora Fernandes – 7/10:
Nora Fernandes did not have much work to do throughout the game, with SC Delhi’s defensive unit keeping Inter Kashi quiet.
However, he also made an important save when called upon and showed good awareness with his recoveries. His ball distribution was also impressive, helping the team build from the back and maintain possession.
Manoj Mohammad – 7/10:
Manoj Mohammad delivered a solid performance at both ends of the pitch. He made an important attacking contribution by providing the assist for Juan Peña’s goal with an excellent cross. Defensively, he was equally effective, recording two tackles and three clearances while maintaining good positional discipline.
Ashutosh Mehta – 6.5/10:
Ashutosh Mehta put in a hardworking defensive shift, finishing the game with five clearances. He showed good awareness in dealing with Inter Kashi’s attacking movements and helped his side manage pressure in the defensive third. However, he needs to do better in terms of being more assertive in defensive duels. .
Duván Viáfara – 7/10:
Duván Viáfara was impressive in his role at centre-back, showing good defensive awareness and composure throughout the contest.
He made important clearances, contributed with timely recoveries and helped keep Inter Kashi’s attackers at bay. His positioning and ability to read the game were particularly encouraging, making him a reliable presence in the heart of the defence.
Clarence Fernandes – 7/10:
Clarence delivered a very encouraging performance alongside Duván Viáfara in central defence. The understanding between the two defenders was particularly noticeable, as they developed a good rapport and worked well together to deal with Inter Kashi’s attacking threats.
Their coordination, communication and defensive organisation helped SC Delhi remain compact and difficult to break down.
Carlos Fortes – 8/10
Carlos Fortes led the attacking line with an impressive performance, opening the scoring with a close-range finish to give SC Delhi an early advantage. Apart from his goal, he created two chances and registered one shot on target.
His movement and ability to find dangerous positions caused problems for the Inter Kashi defence. A productive outing from the forward, who played an important role in setting the tone for the visitors.
Mohammed Aimen – 7 /10
Aimen delivered an encouraging performance, using his pace and dribbling ability to trouble the opposition defence. He created two chances and attempted two shots, although neither found the target.
His willingness to take on defenders and carry the ball into attacking areas added another dimension to SC Delhi’s forward play. While his finishing could have been better, his overall attacking contribution was positive.
Rodriguinho – 8.5/10
Rodriguinho was arguably the standout performer for SC Delhi, delivering an excellent attacking display with one goal and one assist.
He created three chances and attempted five shots, constantly looking to make things happen in the final third. His contribution to Carlos Fortes’ opener was followed by a well-taken goal of his own to seal the victory.
Juan Peña – 8/10
Juan Peña produced a strong performance, getting himself on the scoresheet with a well-directed header to double SC Delhi’s advantage.
He also remained actively involved in the attacking play, registering three shots off target and contributing to the team’s forward movements. His ability to occupy dangerous positions inside the penalty area made him an important attacking outlet.
Lalrinliana Hnamte – 7/10:
Hnamte put in a hardworking performance in midfield, taking responsibility in the central areas and helping his side maintain control of the game. He worked hard to manage the midfield battle, contributed to the team’s overall structure and also attempted a shot that went off target.
Mohammed Azhar – 6/10
Azhar endured a difficult outing, struggling to maintain consistency in possession and losing the ball on several occasions. His timing in defensive challenges was also an issue, with a few mistimed tackles allowing the opposition opportunities to move forward.
Substitutions
Richard Ndayishimiye – 6.5/10
Richard Ndayishimiye showed some attacking intent after coming on, and even got a shot on target and kept moving forward. However, his contribution was somewhat mixed as he also picked up a yellow card for a harsh foul. He showed willingness to get involved but will need to be more disciplined in his challenges.
Augustine Lalrochana – 7/10
Augustine Lalrochana made a useful contribution after coming off the bench in the 73rd minute, helping the team during transitions and creating a promising attacking opportunity.
He showed good awareness in possession and looked to move the ball forward whenever possible. A positive cameo that helped SC Delhi maintain their attacking momentum.
Akshat Mehra – 6.5/10:
Akshat Mehra had only a few minutes as he was brought on in the 82nd minute to make an impact, but he showed encouraging pace and energy during his time on the pitch.
He worked hard to help keep the defensive structure compact and remained attentive to his responsibilities. Although his involvement was limited, he showed some positive signs.
Diamond Singh – N/A:
Diamond Singh came on during the closing stages of the match and had very little time to make a meaningful impact. With the game nearing its conclusion, he could not get sufficiently involved in the proceedings.
Nduka Junior – N/A:
Nduka Junior was also introduced late in the game and had limited opportunities to influence proceedings. With only a few minutes remaining, there was little scope for him to make a significant contribution.
