#2 Defenders
Pritam Kotal (Delhi Dynamos)
The side-back has been impressive in whichever team he has played over the years. Delhi Dynamos FC’s captain is an experienced player and has given everything so far as per his individual capabilities. But he is yet to inspire his team to a victory in the ongoing Indian Super League. Delhi Dynamos FC will face Jamshedpur FC at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium on Sunday, November 4.
Jerry Lalrinzuala (Chennaiyin FC)
The left-back from Mizoram has been a live wire for Chennaiyin FC in the flanks. He has played in each of the five games for his and has done a pretty good job. Apart from producing 9 crosses in the season so far, he has a convincing pass accuracy with a 71.37% conversion rate.
Gerson Vieira (ATK)
The Brazilian centre-back has been a wall for ATK in the defence. His excellent clearances at crucial moments were more than handy for the Kolkata based team so far in the Indian Super League. Gerson has been playing sensational football from the first match itself, but unfortunately, ATK lost the first two encounters.
But they came back well from the match against Delhi Dynamos FC and since then ATK has secured 7 points from the last three matches. Gerson Vieira has been the commander in chief at the back. He was even the initiator of the attack which led to ATK’s opening goal against Chennaiyin FC in the last game.
John Johnson (ATK)
The English defender has been playing in the Indian football circuit for the past five years and has established himself as one of the best in his trade. After a transfer to ATK from Bengaluru FC prior to the season, everyone was eager to see how he fares with his new team.
