Sahil took his tally to six goals in three matches in the League so far. When asked about his consistent performance the striker speaking from Mumbai over the phone, "Seeing red card and being ruled out of the team's last two matches has been a great lesson for me. My coaches, Steve Herbots and Ranjan Bhattacharya, and the club's director Nabab sir have intensely taught me how to keep calm amidst the tense situation during the match. I am also thankful to them and now I constantly try to follow their advice before entering the ground." 

Steve Herbots also happy with the team's performance commented in the post-match media conference, "We have seven points from six matches so far. We have still a long way to go. Due to travelling the boys are not getting enough training between the matches. Still, today's win is a big boost for us before the next matches. We will get a break. I hope we will get some time to prepare."

 

 

However, despite the relief, the team's captain Sanjib Mondol's old knee injury has reportedly revived is keeping the coaches and the management in anxiety.
