Minerva had only one way to score and they tried that throughout the match - from the wings. William Asiedu and Makan Winkle Chote were good at the wings but their game became too predictable for Real Kashmir.

All Kashmir had to do was to ensure that their central defenders were good in the air and Loveday Enyinnaya and Mason Robertson stood tall against the Minerva attack.

Lancine Toure was the only one threatening from a set-piece for Punjab but RKFC had him covered.
