Goalkeeper Anuj Kumar was also at the press conference. When asked about the importance of playing out from the back as a goalkeeper, Kumar said, “When I joined the club, I knew that the coach likes to play from the back and likes to keep the ball. So I knew that I had to be good with my feet and I guess I am performing well and I like the strategy and the tactics that our coach goes with.
Kenkre Football Club are winless in the tournament so far but are slowly and steadily looking to pick themselves and have a huge opportunity to win against Aizawl FC. They were very close to beating the likes of Rajasthan United and getting a point against the league leaders Mohammedan Sporting Club.
“We did have our tough days but in football, there are both good days and bad days. We would like to progress on our plans and try to gain maximum points out of the game tomorrow and from the upcoming games as well”, coach Akhil Kothari said.
Talking about their opponents, head coach Akhil added: “Aizawl is a good team, having some great players in their squad. They had some mixed results but they are former champions of the Hero I-League, and we cannot take them lightly. We want to put up a competitive show tomorrow and try to get points out of the game.”
