KOLKATA (India): Newly-appointed Mohammedan Sporting coach Sankarlal Chakraborty face a difficult job when his side take on Chennai City in I-League match here tomorrow.
The kick-off is at 7 PM IST.
Chakraborty hoped Mohammedan will look to put their past performances behind them and aim to move into the top half.
“It is a tough job for us at the moment. We have discussed where we were going wrong, and are practising to make them right in training. I only hope that we can come up with a positive result from the remaining games,” said Chakraborty. “My main focus right now is to regroup with the players and rebuild our team game.”
Mohammedan, who were unbeaten in the first six games, find themselves on a two-match losing streak after their 3-0 defeat to Aizawl.
The Black Panthers are seventh with 10 points from eight games.
Chennai City FC coach Satyasagara said, “The team as a whole played very well in the last game. They worked hard, but unfortunately, we conceded at the last minute due to a lack of focus. We are continuously working on ourselves during training sessions, and can only hope we build on the positives.”
