SC East Bengal interim head coach Renedy Singh addressed the media ahead of their ISL clash against Mumbai City FC. Given the current state of affairs within the dressing room, Renedy admitted to taking it one step at a time. He said:

"We are taking it one match at a time. Now, my focus is on how to play and move as a team against Mumbai City FC. It is going to be a tough match but not impossible by any means."

However, Renedy Singh confirmed that his side will miss the services of central defender Tomislav Mrcela for the upcoming game. The defender is expected to be out of action for at least three weeks because of a muscle injury.
