Lallianzuala Chhangte has been in incredible form over the last few games, scoring three goals over two legs in the semifinals against FC Goa as Mumbai City FC won 5-2 on aggregate. The winger has been very consistent, scoring over ten goals in two seasons.
And in the process, he has become the only Indian player in the league to score over ten goals in two seasons in the ISL. The 26-year-old will be looking to steer his side to the ISL Cup in the final game of the season this Saturday, when they face Mohun Bagan SG once again.

The winger has been given a lot of freedom under new head coach Petr Kratky, and he has taken the opportunity very well. He has now started to score goals, finding the back of the net more often and capitalising on the positions he gets in.
Lallianzuala Chhangte is also the second-highest Indian goalscorer in the history of the ISL with 40 goals to his name. Sunil Chhetri currently leads the list with 61 to his name, and with time on his side, Chhangte could easily surpass the India skipper in the coming years.
It now remains to be seen if the winger can remain consistent in his performances in the coming seasons to add to his tally.
