Eduardo and Katsumi Yusa are two of the most influential players in this NEROCA FC side, and they missed a couple of games this season due to injury. NEROCA FC missed their services in those crucial games, and it was evident in the way they played.

Eduardo is a type of player who leads the team from behind and helps the defence keep the shape and makes sure that there is coordination between the midfielders and defenders.

Katsumi Yusa is a player who needs little introduction in India football. He has the experience of playing for the Big two of Indian football and has also played the ISL for Northeast United FC.

Katsumi had an impact on the game today as he created numerous chances for the Chidi and Subhas and also kept the likes of Rohlua busy defending.

Eduardo was crucial in defence and made some vital clearances and interceptions. He also put in some last-ditch tackles to ensure that NEROCA came out of this game with all three points.
