Lallianzuala scored two brilliant goals against Nepal to propel India into the SAFF Cup semi-final.


After Nepal took the early lead, India hit back through Rowlin Borges and Sunil Chhetri.


Thereafter it was the Lallianzuala show, as the confident youngster scored a double.



His first goal came from a classic left-footed curler from the edge of the box, while he bagged his second with an intelligent header.




The 18-year-old will represent new team DSK Shivajians in the I-League in 2016.


From the evidence so far, it is fair to assume that Indian football has unearthed a potential superstar.
