ATK Mohun Bagan's performance against Kerala Blasters carried the hallmark of a typical Antonio Habas side. They sat deep, relied on counter-attack, made the most of an error by the opposition to get the goal and then stifled Kibu Vicuna's men in the attacking third for the remaining 23-odd-minutes to seal the three points.
It was a battle of two contrasting philosophies. Vicuna likes to dominate possession, whereas Habas believes in a more pragmatic approach. The two-time ISL (Indian Super League) winning coach laid his customary trap and his opposite number walked into it.
