Our performances so far have not been bad: Bruzon

“Our team gelled quite well in the first two games and made good transitions on the field. But that wasn’t enough to get us the six points that we had aimed at, but we accept the result and move forward,” added Bruzon.

Mumbai City FC will be able to welcome back the Indian trio of Sunil Chhetri, Subrata Pal and Lalchhuanmawia Fanai who returned from International duty with India and the Mumbai City FC number two was pleased to have them back.

“Sunil, Pal and Fanai are back with us and we are happy to have them. We know the qualities that they bring to the team and having them back certainly makes us stronger,” claimed the former Sporting Club de Goa Head Coach Oscar Bruzon, who was speaking at the pre-match press conference.

Time to deliver on expectations

Oscar Bruzon though stressed on delivering the goods in tomorrow’s game against Chennaiyin FC as he felt it was time for his team to show how good they are.

I feel we are well placed to take the three points from tomorrow’s game and all that is needed is to perform and show to the world how good we are,” said a bullish Oscar Bruzon.

Mumbai City play five consecutive home games and it’s evident that Mumbai City FC’s season hinges on what they achieve in these five games in the next fifteen days.
