Aizawl FC will host Real Kashmir FC in the I-League with the goal of climbing the standings.
Real Kashmir FC, who have lost three straight games, travels to eighth-place Aizawl FC on Monday for an I-League match at the Rajiv Gandhi Stadium in Aizawl.
Aizawl FC did not anticipate to be in this position at the I-League break with twelve points from nine games. A few things, though, worked against them. Due to Standly Rozario’s declining health, they were forced to work with Caetano Pinho as their replacement. The Reds also dropped a few games that were quite tight and could have gone other way.
The time has come to focus and exert more pressure. Real Kashmir, who are now third in the standings with 16 points, must overcome a slump as they begin their season on Monday. The Snow Leopards won five of their first six games before suffering a three-game losing streak.
Even though he is aware of the threat posed by Aizawl, Real Kashmir coach Mehrajuddin Wadoo is optimistic about regaining the rhythm. Although we admire them and think they are a fantastic squad, tomorrow will be more about us. According to a news release from the I-League, he stated on Sunday, “For me as a coach, the main worry is how we play as a team, not the opponents.
He did not want to overinterpret the abrupt lack of momentum following the home loss to RoundGlass Punjab. “Losing is an inevitable aspect of playing. We lost focus during certain crucial times in the last three games, which is what occurred. I hope we won’t make the same mistakes again,” he said.
The following day, his men would undoubtedly need to be on their toes since Rajiv Gandhi Stadium has been turned into a fortress by former I-League winners Aizawl. It’s challenging to defeat them here. They have won all three of their games at home.
Wadoo, though, asserted that his team always plays for a win and never settles for a tie.
For his part, Aizawl coach Pinho claimed that the winter break had allowed his team to strengthen their areas of weakness. “We had a rigorous nine days of training. Certainly, helpful is that. Just a little more consistency is required from us.
The coach wants to finish the league among the top six, if not higher, given where the team is currently. However, scoring victories away from home will be Aizawl’s main difficulty.
Live coverage of the match between Aizawl and Real Kashmir will be available on the OTT platforms Discovery Plus, DD Sports, and Eurosport. According to the sources.
