In a game played in the Indian Super League, neighbours take each other on as Mumbai City FC travels to face FC Pune City in what will be either team’s last game of the regular season on Saturday.
Mumbai City FC are in the third spot in the league table and they have done exceedingly well this year. The franchise took a leap of faith by getting in coach Jorge Costa and he has delivered by qualifying for the semi-finals. The recruits brought this year also have done their job and the objective of the season has been completed. They will be looking to keep up the goal-scoring form and make their mark in the last game of the regular season.
Meanwhile, FC Pune City are clearly the most improved team from the start of the campaign. They are showing great promise with this formation and it seems that if the management didn’t appoint Miguel Portugal at the start, things would have been different. He was let go just after three games of the season, and it is apparent that Marcelinho needed to get back in the starting lineup. Regardless, the damage was done, and this franchise will be looking to build itself back to the top next season.
