KOLKATA (India): Gokulam Kerala hoped to extend their winning streak when they take on unbeaten Churchill Brothers in the I-League tomorrow.
Churchill won their second match on the trot by beating NEROCA 1-0. The victory extended the Red Machines’ lead over Real Kashmir on the top of the Hero I-League to two points.
With both Kashmir and Gokulam Kerala hot on their heels, Fernando Varela’s side cannot afford to slip up against the Malabrians and will go for all three points as they try to extend their lead on the top.
“We did a very good job to beat NEROCA. For me, it was one of the best games of the season. We created good chances and were resilient at the back. But now our focus is on the next game against Gokulam Kerala,” said coach Varela.
Gokulam Kerala are in their best form since the start of the season after they beat Sudeva Delhi with a solitary goal extending their winning streak to three games.
Coach Vincenzo Alberto Annese said, “We dominated the last game, but scored just once. I am happy that we created a lot of chances, and not worried that we missed those chances against Sudeva.”
