Abahani aim to end losing streak

Sports Reporter

The AFC Cup competition for Abahani Limited turned into a battle to bail out from the losing embrace when they will take on the JSW Bengaluru FC today at the Bangabandhu National Stadium at 6:10pm. 

It would be fourth match for the both Abahani Limited of Bangladesh and the Bengaluru of India when the former will play their home match and the later away match.
Bengaluru, will be favorites despite they will play the away match when being the host are not favourites, as they have already conceded defeats in their last three matches at a stretch. On the other hands Bengaluru won their last previous matches in a row and are leading the Group E with full nine points. 
However, about today’s match, both the coaches of Abahani and Bengaluru conveyed respect to each others when they taking about the match in a press conference yesterday but both the coaches were very much positive to win the match. 
Drago Mamic, head coach of the home team, Abahani Limited said, “Tomorrow is our fourth and second home match, now it because an obligation for us to win the match and we will push and will drill all our power to win the match.” 
Mamun Meah, captain of the Abahani just agreeing with that they are no more in the race to go up, said, “It is reality, now we are out of race and so we have nothing to lose, we are in a last situation, so we will try to win the match.” 
Mamun Meah, the central defender of Bangladesh National team was also optimistic that if they could break the winning draught today, the will be able to win rest of the two matches. 
Drago Mamic, the Croatian, thinks that there are so many reasons of awful result in the competition, as he said, “To play in the tough level like in the AFC competition, a team should have proper preparation, Abahani could not play with their full strength team, you know we couldn’t play with the squad we had lat season, five vital players left the club, the foreign booters, like Lee Tuck, Sunday were also absent.” 
Alberto Roca Pujlo, who is now very relaxed position with his team’s position, showing some courtesy to his counterpart of Drago Mamic, said, “It would be very tough match to win but we will have to compete our best and will try to win the match.”
“I don’t think it will be easy for us, Abahani is very strong side and it will be very tough for my players.” 
“To be honest, it will be not same match for us, we played in home, it would be different game match but we will have to try our best to win because it will shift us to next round,” said Albeto Roca.
