#1 Borja Fernandes crucial to Kolkatas midfield
Atletico de Kolkata’s skipper Borja Fernandes has been immense this season and is one of the few players to have played every one of the twelve games his team has been part of. Today the Spaniard scored a sublime goal to put his side 2-0 ahead against the Gaurs.
His long range power drive from outside the box caught goalkeeper, Laximant who had no chance to save the screamer, by surprise . To make it even more momentous, that goal was his first since the very first match of the ISL back in 2014.
That ball travelled at 93 km/hr right into the top left corner. His ability to spray inch perfect passes across the pitch was visible to all today. The midfielder has often exhibited why he is practically unbenchable and tonight was no different.
