Mumbai FC desperate for win

MUMBAI: Desperate times call for desperate measures and no points from four games is reason enough for Mumbai FC to try something outlandish in a bid to earn their first points of the I-League when they host Sporting Clube de Goa at the Balewadi Stadium in Pune, on Friday. Languishing at the bottom of the table with a defence that has leaked in 10 goals and strikers who have missed gilt-edged chances that would have changed much for Mumbai FC, coach Khalid Jamil has more than just a few problems to worry about. Though it is still early days in the League, Mumbai FC would not like to leave things for late as has been the case over the last two season where they have battled and survived relegation by the skin of their teeth.

On paper, the Mumbai side has a fairly decent team with impressive acquisitions in the foreign players department. But they haven't been able to translate any of that on field. Strikers Yusif Yakubu and ND Opara come with enough experience and will have to be more clinical in front of goal given their side's frailties at the back.
Mumbai FC will hope the return of midfielder Evans Quao from suspension gives them an attacking edge.

Sporting, who with four points and sit on 11th position are spearheaded by the versatile Ogba Kalu and it wouldn't be cocky of them to think they could walk away with more than just the single point that Mumbai FC would target. The Goan side had managed to snatch a vital point against a much-fancied East Bengal and their first win was away at Shillong Lajong which should give them enough confidence for Friday's clash.
