Analysing the performance of all 8 teams in season 2 of Indian Super League

The second season of the Indian super League came to a frantic end with Chennaiyin FC clinching the title in the dying moments of the game. The men from Chennai have by and far been the story of the season. A few weeks back, they were almost out of the reckoning for a place in the semis and now they stand as winners of the Indian Super League.However, it is not just Chennai; a few of the other teams have also impressed us. And on the other hand, there have been a few sides who have failed to live up to their expectations.Here’s an analysis of the performance of all the eight sides this season:

#1 Atletico de Kolkata

The reigning champions began the season on the right track with a win away at Chennai. Decent results followed but things took a turn for the worse thereafter.

Following the win against Kerala, Habas’ men lost three games on the trot. They won and lost the next two games respectively and by then their chances of making the last four were looking slim.

But then the likes of Iain Hume and Sameehg Doutie stepped up their game. Hume and Doutie combined on various occasions over the next few games and helped their side win four out of the next five games.

It was not just these two players. Arnab Mondal, Borja Fernandez and the others clicked very well in the latter stages of the league campaign as Atletico became the first team to qualify for the playoffs.

Unfortunately for them, their journey ended at the hands of the eventual champions. However, the attacking brand of football played by the team would surely have delighted the fans and officials alike.
