FC Pune City will want to continue their winning run as they take on Chennaiyin FC in the ISL. Marco Materazzi, player-manager of the away team, spoke to the media ahead of his team’s match. The Italian’s side will be looking to win the match after two draws in their last two games. Here’s what he had to say ahead of the game:
On the game against FC Pune City
Tomorrow is a very important game for us as we have the chance to go top at the end of the first phase. Pune City are a quality side and they showed that by winning away at Atletico de Kolkata in their last game.
On needing to win after two draws
The first draw against Atletico de Kolkata felt good as we scored late in the game but the last match we should have won. However the mood is still very positive in the squad so we are aiming for maximum points.
On Elano's form
He is a very important player for us. We have other quality players also like Bruno Pelissari and Cristian Hidalgo. But Elano of course is class. Not everybody gets more than 50 caps for Brazil. Hopefully he will maintain his great goal-scoring form in the ISL.
