#1 Esqueda impresses on debut
Enrique Esqueda has scored against AC Milan, Manchester City and Real Madrid in his early career. Not many players in the I-League can boast that kind of CV.
As usual, the eyes were on the Spaniard and how he performs on a different league like this. Considering his debut performance, Esqueda impressed one and all.
He is a player who knows how to utilise a half chance. That is what he did during the ball. Williams’s header fell on to him, which he chested down calmly and triggered a shot towards the goal, making sure the goalkeeper had no chance to save.
During the match, he took the positions, combined well with his partner Joby Justin and kept the rival defenders under pressure. Even he made a goal-line save during a corner and helped his team to come out with a clean sheet.
But he went down cheaply a couple of times to earn a free-kick, amid the vehement protests by the Neroca FC defenders. He should take care of this as any kind of play-acting could earn him a caution from the referee.
