Odisha FC’s misery continued in 2021 when they lost to East Bengal on Sunday. – TWITTER / @ OdishaFC
Odisha FC is the only team not to win the 2020-21 edition of the Indian Super League. It will be hungry to open an account against Kerala Blasters at GMC Stadium in Bambolim, Goa on Thursday.
Kerala has only one win and is ninth out of eleven teams. The men from Kochi tried hard to score freely. The fact that they only scored eight goals – only the bottom Odisha scored fewer – should be a worrying statistic. But coach Kibu Vicuna is not discouraged. « The good thing is that we created opportunities, » he said.
“The bad thing is that we didn’t hit. We are working to improve this aspect. Every game is different. “
He added that he had respect for Odisha. “You didn’t deserve to lose the last game against East Bengal. You have good players. So we’ll focus on having a good game, creating opportunities and taking them. «

His counterpart, Stuart Baxter, agreed. « The biggest problem we have right now is that even though we’ve played well in most of the games, we haven’t been able to get any results from them, » he said. “Just put the ball in your net and prevent the ball from getting into your opponent’s net – how do we do this and how do we do it more efficiently? Although they play reasonably well in most games and sometimes dominate, these do not translate into results. That can damage faith. «
