Grand Finals of Hero Indian Super League

Atletico de Kolkata Vs. Kerala Blasters

Hero Indian Super League

Good day folks! We are at the end of the inaugural season of the Hero Indian Super League. The high drama to be ended with Atletico de Kolkata and Kerala Blasters clashing in the grand final match to be held in Mumbai tomorrow. It's premature to predict results of the match since the Hero Indian Super League has seen unexpected twists and turns. The expected top contenders who created huge buzz with bringing in top strikers and midfielders failed secure the top spot. Really loved to watch such an action sports. In the end, they all proved that a team is not less than others in this tournament.

From the league matches held between the two team in which both the team drew the first match between them and Kerala Blasters ended up winning against Atletico de Kolkata . But that was with an abysmal margin of one goal. We are not interested in the debated hand-ball for now.

For Luis Garcia's men, the task ahead is tough. Consistency in the performance is the need of the hour. The Semi-final between FC Goa and Atletico de Kolkata ended inconclusively with a goalless draw till 120th minute of the match. The Strong eleven men of Atletico de Kolkata could be kept away from goal if the Kerala Blaster maintain a good d-line which has high probability to break once concerted team effort is exerted by Atletico de Kolkata. Kerala Blasters were startled with conceding three goals against Chennaiyin FC. Had the Chennaiyin FC turned few chances into goals, it would have crashed out Kerala Blasters of the tournament. So, the team Kolkata might try hard to keep good tactics on field.

Atletico de Kolkata is well known for its rough defense play. Tight marking and covering spaces would make Kerala Blasters rethink their attack play. Atletico de Kolkata has displayed an unrelenting play when it comes to defense. No easy goals against Kolkata pals! But Kerala Blasters are turning good at converting few mistakes into an unforgiving goals as they did in Semi-finals against Chennaiyin FC. The question is how consistent will team Kolkata be in its defense against Kerala Blasters! The match against FC Goa, Atletico de Kolkatta suffered some deficiency in defense. For an instance, a cut-in by the winger, Romeo Fernandas, led to a shot against Kolkata but the shot saw the wrong side of the net. Complacency has no place in football. Nevertheless, no team is immune from any attack unless well coordinated defense is in play. Conversely, some believe attack is the best form of defense.

Final match of the Hero Indian Super League is the only answers for the question that go unanswered. Dynamism in this tournament has made every future match unpredictable. One thing will happen for sure irrespective of any predictions, both the team will spice up the game tomorrow night. Lets football!
