Edel Bete: 7/10

ISL's most decorated goalkeeper showed his class yet again as he was crucial in Pune gaining all three points against their rivals. He was good to come out of his position, thwarted crosses and made a crucial save against Forlan.

Narayan Das: 6/10

The left wing-back was effective offensively but struggled defensively for the Stallions. His work rate is unquestionable, though, but Das will have to be consistent if Pune are to reach the semi-finals.

Eduardo Ferreira: 7/10

It was heartening to see Ferreira return from a nasty injury that he suffered in the last game. He was physical when needed and it was a typical no-nonsense performance from the centre-back.

Gouramangi Singh: 6/10

India's veteran defender, Singh was resolute at the back and was calm in possession as he looked untroubled by the likes of Defederico and Cunha.

Augustin Fernandes: 6/10

The defender played the last two games thanks to the suspension of Ravanan and the defender proved his worth to his team against Mumbai. He was nervous at times in the first half but did his job decently with some fine clearances.

Rahul Bheke: 7/10

Bheke is improving with each passing game for the Stallions and the right full-back was brilliant on the night with his deliveries from the right flank and also with his tracking back to negate the threat of Chhetri.

Jonaton Lucca: 5/10

Lucca was silent against Mumbai as he could not impose his authority on the game. He complained incessantly to the referee which later became a bit over the top. He was substituted with an injury and received a booking for time wasting.

Mohammed Sissoko: 6/10

The Malian was at his usual best as Pune's marquee signing played consistently well in his favoured position. He hounded Mumbai's forwards throughout the game which made life difficult for the hosts.

Lenny Rodrigues: 5/10

Another dull game for Rodrigues as he wasted many opportunities with his wayward shooting and was also poor in possession. Habas might drop him if the midfielder does not improve his performances.

Anibal Zurdo: 6/10

Zurdo ran the channels well but he and Traore were isolated throughout, as Pune came with a definite plan to keep Mumbai City at bay rather than them attacking the hosts.

Dramane Traore: 5/10

A disappointing night for the towering striker as he wasn't provided with proper service and was at times the only player in Pune's box for the incoming crosses in the first half.

Substitutions

Eugeneson Lyngdoh: 8/10

India's midfield genius showed his class in his first appearance this season as he scored the much-needed winner for the visitors. He was quick with his feet and was present at the right place at the right time.

Jesus Tato: 710

The Spaniard has established himself as Pune's creative force this season and his arrival brought an attacking impetus to the side.

Dharmaraj Ravanan: 6/10

Ravanan served his suspension and played the final few minutes well as he replaced the injured Gouramangi Singh.
