ATK Mohun Bagan ISL: Jamshedpur match is the final for us says Roy Krishna, Pritam Kotal: There is no relief in ATK Mohun Bagan even after the club remains unbeaten in 15 consecutive matches. Juan Ferrando’s brigade is desperate to be at the top of the league for the AFC Champions League. After winning the Chennaiyin match, the calculation to reach that goal has started in the Green Maroon camp. Tiri and Liston Colaco and others have started practice since Friday afternoon to avoid any complacency in the team before the match against Jamshedpur FC on Monday. After nine matches, Roy Krishna’s great goal in the last match is giving relief to the team. Pritam Kotal, the captain of the unbeaten team of 15 consecutive matches, is giving importance to Roy Krishna’s return. Roy Krishna and Pritam Kotal both spoke to the ATKMB Media team on ATK Mohun Bagan ISL campaign.

Roy Krishna on Jamshedpur FC:

“Chennaiyin is a good team. Beating the team was not easy. We have reached the playoffs. This time we will play the final against Jamshedpur to stay at the top of the league. Jamshedpur is a strong team but we want to focus on ourselves. We want to play with the confidence that will take us to the top of the league. We have that opportunity. ”

“There was no pressure on me to score. It feels good to score. This is not my sole achievement, it is a team’s success. We were able to keep the goal intact in two consecutive matches. This continuity must be maintained. Everyone knows what to do in the Jamshedpur match. We shall do what needs to be done for a final match. We will get on the field after proper recovery. ”

“The Green Maroon fans wanted us to go to the playoff and we did so. This is the final match of our league. Then there is the play-off and final of the knock-out stage. Stay by our side so that we can win the matches, inspire us in different ways.”

Pritam Kotal Reacts:

“Last year was the same situation. I think we could not meet the target because we took too much pressure in a hurry. We don’t want to do that now. We have to play our own game and wait for the goal. When there is no other way to become a champion except to win, the Jamshedpur match has to be taken as the final match. Because now our only goal is to get permission to play in the Champions League.”

“From ball possession to passing, our team has improved in both cases. This has increased the confidence of the whole team. In the Chennaiyin match, we played some dangerous passes as a part of the strategy. There has been a success in that. The defense is much more organized than before. We will play the Jamshedpur match in another strategy. They play long balls. The whole team is very organized. The left-wing is very good. The team gets goals from counter-attacks and set-pieces. That should be kept in mind. However, Roy is back on the team. That’s very good. In his presence, the defense of the opposition will be under pressure.”

More Reaction by the Captain:

“Our team is unbeaten in 15 consecutive matches. I was the captain in all the matches. This time I have played all the matches like Amrinder Singh. These have made me a more confident personality. We had a good start. Sometimes there was a slight ebb. We turned around just in time. Hopefully, the ending part will be good too. It’s my wish that before going on the field for the Jamshedpur match, I would want my team members to take an oath. Now what is the oath about, I guess it’s better that it stays within the team.”
