After a long time, the fans were back in the stadium. It was a great atmosphere here. Obviously, Manjapadda are a very loud fan group and they are really awesome fans. Deccan Legion, the Hyderabad FC fans, also put on a great show.

My family and friends were here too. So, it was a great moment for me. Kattimani here deserves all the credit.

We wouldn’t be here if it wasn’t for him, throughout the entire season,” said Hyderabad FC’s Sahil Tavora.

“We have a coach who is demanding and he demands 100% every day and in every game. So, we know we have to be on it.
