Robinho shines as Bashundhara Kings beat Gokulam Kerala
Hindustan TimesFor over 14 months, Gokulam Kerala FC were unconquered. All those who thought that would take a lot out of this team comprising mostly first-timers from the Malabar region had another think coming when GKFC stunned ATK Mohun Bagan. Kings attacked GKFC’s right side where Sreekuttan VS was struggling to cope with Robinho’s trickery leaving right back Rishad Pazhaya with too much to do. Kings ended the first half looking the better team barring a fifth minute blemish when they were caught on the break but Jithin MS, having done everything right including beating a defender, couldn’t keep his shot on target. Whatever hopes GKFC may have had of salvaging their campaign was doused when Robinho, under pressure, found Gabonese Nuha Marong with a delivery between central defenders Alex Saji and the dependable Bouba Aminou.
