ATK are back on top of the table as they continue their pursuit for the Asian Champions League group stage berth...
The 15,101 spectators present at the Salt Lake Stadium on Monday knew what was in store for them right from the off.
Withing minutes into the game between ATK and NorthEast United, Antonio Habas' wide men had taken control of the flanks and were bombarding forward with ease. The fact that ATK only managed a 1-0 win, that too thanks to a last-minute goal, is difficult to comprehend.
NorthEast United's decision to drop deeper and field a low block, which Robert Jarni termed as a strategy to prevent quick counters, turned out to be a show of too much respect to the opposition.
