Six matches, two goals and no victory. That has been the story so far for NorthEast United in the ninth edition of Indian Super League (ISL). But coach Marco Balbul thinks it's going to change soon, hopefully in Guwahati on Friday, when they face the unbeaten Mumbai City FC in the teams' seventh match of the season. And if doesn't, then NEUFC will set the record for the longest losing streak in the league.
"Every time we think positive and believe that we can win the game. If we don't believe, then it's over. But I believe in the team and the players believe in the team and tomorrow (Friday), we are hoping that the result will be positive for us," Balbul said during the pre-match press conference in Guwahati on Thursday. "The fans have till now suffered. And we want to give them better football, better fighting (spirit) and a better result tomorrow."
