AT THE post match press-conference, Bengaluru FC coach Albert Roca was a happy man. His team defeated Mumbai City FC 2-0 to begin their debut ISL season on a high.
Talking about the match and opening goal scored by Edu Garcia, he said,
"We do a lot of set piece training and it paid off by giving the players confidence to translate the same on the ground thus giving us a goal today. We will continue to do so as it helps open the game and helps us create more chances. It is a long race ahead and we have to be prepared for all battles."
He further added,
"All the teams are good so considering that, it is not always easy to score many goals. Mumbai have a really good defence, so we tried to create as many chances as possible and I am happy with the result. We do have strikers that are a class apart, so we will definitely try to get as many goals as possible."
BFC fans, the West Block Blues had created an electrifying atmosphere at the Kanteerava, talking about the same, coach said,
"The atmosphere was really good in the stadium and it is very important for the club and the city to see the fans coming out to support us. On the other hand, it is important for us to keep winning in order for more fans to come and support us as they deserve that, and we look forward to strengthening our relationship along the way which will only lift up the club and city."
He also had words of praises for players Miku and Rahul Bheke.
"Miku played really well and deservingly got a standing ovation. He has played in the Spanish league and is an outstanding player. He didn’t score but proved to be a threat overall and that proves that strikers do more than just score and with such an attitude we look forward to winning all our upcoming games."
"Rahul is an amazing player. He can play on the wings as well as a full-back, which is an advantage [for us because] we can try out other players in different positions. He played really well and with such performances from our entire squad we look forward to great results."
