Srinagar- Real Kashmir FC will take on Mumbai Kenkre FC today, Thursday, December 22, in an I-League 2022-23 season at Cooperage Stadium in Mumbai.
The match will kick off at 4:30 PM.
The Snow Leopards will be looking to get back to winning ways after suffering two consecutive losses, and slipping down to third place in the I-League table.
Real Kashmir head coach Mehrajuddin Wadoo revealed he will be banking on his experience of playing in Mumbai to cope with the upcoming challenge.
“I have played for Mumbai FC and Mumbai City FC. I have coached here in Mumbai as well and in my squad, there were many local players with high potential. Now, Mumbai Kenkre have given a chance to many players from Mumbai to play in the I-League. There’s a lot of potential,” said the coach.
Asked about RKFC’s recent dip in form, Waddoo had this to say:
“I think against RoundGlass Punjab, we got two red cards when we were in complete control of the game. Against Mohammedan Sporting, we conceded in the second and received a red card there as well. We created a lot of chances, but could not score. Our focus is on the game tomorrow against Kenkre and I hope the boys will give their best.”
A victory will take the Srinagar-based team (16 points from 8 matches) level with Sreenidi Deccan FC, who sit second in the table with 19 points from 9. RoundGlass Punjab hold the top spot with 20 points from 9 matches.
