#1 Mumbai\'s misfiring strikers

Mumbai City FC have enjoyed plenty of the ball in matches and have kept 53% average possession in their first three games. There have been times especially in the matches against Kerala Blasters and FC Pune City that the Mumbaikars have had their opponents right on the mat, but haven’t in any way been able to make the dominance count.

With the lowest number of shots (37) and shots on target (17) Mumbai City have found goals hard to come by with just one goal in their three games.  Initially, it was considered a blip, but the Mumbai City FC strikers failed to fire against Chennaiyin FC at home and it became more of a trend that has had Mumbai City FC worried to the assistant coach Oscar Bruzon’s admission.

Mumbai City FC’s impotency in front of the goal comes as a huge surprise to many who expected Nicolas Anelka’s men to be full of goals. But it’s still early days in the ISL and Mumbai City FC have time to put it right. But facing a solid Delhi Dynamos outfit, it has to get better from today.
