E
Aizwal FC tried their best

Lalawmpuia (3.5/10) - The Aizawl FC keeper was under a constant barrage of attacks from the Bengaluru FC side and even conceded a penalty for a foul inside the box when he brought down Sunil Chhetri.

Lalram Hmunmawia (4/10) - The left-back of the Northeast Indian club was kept totally occupied by the dangerous Udanta Singh on his flank. He had to deal with the threat of Nishu Kumar as well who ventured with intent along the wings.

Masih Saighani (4/10) - The experienced Afghan defender was in for a troubled time in the central defence as Bengaluru FC exploited the holes in the Aizawl FC with great ease. He won some headers in the box but was unsuccessful to a large extent tonight in dealing with the Blues' attack.

Renthlei Laldinliana (4/10) - The young right-back had a tough time tonight having to deal with the red-hot Sunil Chhetri on his flank. This did not deter him from making charges in attack for the Reds as he had a couple of crosses for the attackers ahead.

Chawnghlut Lalrosanga (4.5/10) - The centre-back formed the defensive pairing with Saighani as they struggled to deal with the well-drilled Bengaluru FC attack. He marked Segovia in the match but could not contain the Spanish striker.

Khawlhring Lalthathanga (4/10) - The winger was a surprisingly quiet presence in the Aizawl FC midfield as he did not manage to have a considerable impact on the game, a stark contrast from his usual standards.

David Lalrinmuana (3/10) - The young midfielder had a short stint in today's match as he was subbed off in the 26th minute of the match when Sena Fanai came on to replace him in the midfield.

Alfred Kemah Jaryan (5/10) - The Aizawl FC man was a busy soul in the midfield as Bengaluru controlled the flow of play from the centre of the pitch. He worked hard to put in tackles and kickstart attacks for the Mizoram side but found it tough to get going.

Andrei Ionescu (5.5/10) - The Romanian midfielder was the creative source for whatever attack that Aizawl FC could muster up against the Bengaluru side. He tried to test Ralte in the Bengaluru goal with long-range shots but had no success.

Leonce Dodoz Zikahi (5/10) - The Ivorian winger was the man in charge of initiating the counter attacks for the Mizoram side. He created a couple of chances but generally found it tough to break past the organized Bengaluru defence.

Lalkhawpuimawia (4.5/10) - The lone man up front for Santosh Kashyap's side had an unproductive night as Aizawl FC barely managed a proper shot on target. He was subbed off in the final fifteen minutes when Lalnunfela came on to replace him in the attack.

Substitutes:

Liandala Sena Fanai (4.5/10) - The midfielder came on to replace Lalrinmuana in the first half of the match. He tried his best to deal with the Bengaluru midfielders but had a tough time.

William Lalnunfela (3/10) - The striker came on to replace Lalkhawpuimawia in the final 15 minutes of the match as Aizawl FC looked for a consolation goal.

Lalrawngbawla (1/10) - The defender came on to replace the injured Masih Saighani for the final minutes of the match.
