I-League: RoundGlass Punjab, NEROCA aim to finish campaign on high note

The final Gameweek of I-League 2021-22 begins with a clash between RoundGlass Punjab FC and NEROCA FC on Friday.

Both teams are arriving into this match suffering back-to-back defeats and will be looking to end the campaign on a winning note.

RoundGlass Punjab head coach Edwin Engelkes reflected on an unsteady season.

“After my arrival, we started playing really well. We were not stable. In the last couple of games.

It was a bit difficult. We have to improve in quite a few areas that we look to do tomorrow,” he said.

Midfielder Aphaoba Singh accompanied the coach in the pre-match press conference and he said in a statement.

“The results didn’t go to our favour but we are well-prepared for the last match.

NEROCA are a very good team and they played well this season. It will be a good match and we want to finish the campaign with a victory.”

Meanwhile, Engelkes feels both teams will have a similar approach in their final game of the season.

It will be an open game and we want to be better than them by giving better performances,” he concluded.

On the other hand, NEROCA head coach W Khogen Singh thinks his players have had a good experience from this campaign.

There have been ups and downs. We want to end the campaign on a winning note, ” Dhas added.
