What can you say about this man? Probably the best striker of ISL, Miku is already a superstar. Come every match, and he will score a goal or provide an assist, or will do both, just like he did on Monday.

Miku has a deep connection with Sunil Chhetri. Both of them know where the other player is, without a look. Miku and Chhetri both complement each other well. Miku is famous for his positioning and always tried to avoid his marker. Even if he is marked, he can provide assists.

Take the example of Chhetri’s second goal. When Miku got the ball, he was heavily marked by Sahil Panwar, Matt Mills and Martin Diaz. Still, he got the markers on the wrong foot and provided a beautiful assist to Chhetri, who was standing on the other side. Even Chhetri pointed towards Miku and praised him after scoring the goal.

Miku got his name on the score sheet quite fashionably. He was again marked by Panwar when Albert Serran crossed to him. It took a chest trap and a right-footed shot for Miku to score the goal, leaving Panwar bamboozled.
