Kalyani : After beating Chennai City FC 2-0 in their previous match, Real Kashmir FC will aim to build on their winning momentum, grabbing maximum points, when they take on fourth-placed Sudeva Delhi FC at the Kalyani Municipal Stadium on Tuesday.
After a slow start in the I-League, where they were held to a 1-1 draw by TRAU, Real Kashmir put their hat into the title contention, defeating Chennai City 2-0 and going third on the table despite being on level points (4) with table toppers Churchill Brothers and Mohammedan SC.
Speaking at the pre-match press conference, head coach David Robertson said, “It was a very tough match against Chennai City FC but we dug deep and got the job done. We played well and had some good spells in the game, we are looking to replicate that performance in the next match as well.”
To win the I-League is tough as every game presents its own set of challenges. Sudeva won’t be any different, however, we are ready for the match and would aim for the win. We want to also create pressure on the other two title challengers who are above us,” he added.
Head coach Chencho Dorji is wary of the threat that Real Kashmir presents.
“They (Real Kashmir) are one of the best sides in the nation and we have to be very focused going into the match. Every game is very important and the season will become tougher as it progresses,” Dorji said.
“We have to be more disciplined both in attack and defence. We are optimistic of our chances against them,” he added. (IANS)
