ISL 2020-21: Is attacking football ATK Mohun Bagan's strength? Antonio Lopez Habas comments
ATK Mohun Bagan continues to dominate second in the Indian Super League 2020-21 table. It is making its debut this season and is off to a commendable start. Meanwhile, a win against Jamshedpur FC on Sunday would seal its place in the playoffs.
Indian Super League giant, ATK Mohun Bagan has had a glorious start to its debut season so far, placed second in the table. While it takes on sixth-placed Jamshedpur FC on Sunday, a win against it would seal its place in the playoffs.
ATKMB is on a three-game winning streak, as it looks to go ahead with the same momentum. Furthermore, the side has been seen playing attacking football for most of the season, as manager Antonio Lopez Habas asserts that it is how it loves to play like.
"We always try to play attacking football, but it's not just one proposal to play attacking football. You have to attack and defend because football is about two things. The team can improve and work to achieve all our objectives," said Habas during the pre-match press conference, reports goal.com.

"The team is good and has confidence. Now, we have to win our last four matches to increase our possibility to win the league stage. We are focused every day on the next opponent, no more. Now, we have to play (Jamshedpur), as if this is our last. All matches are different and the situation is different in each match. I think the match will be hard," he added.
Speaking on the game against Jamshedpur and how strong the latter is, Habas was wary of its strong midfield. "They have good players in all lines. They have good centre backs, good creative central midfielders and evidently the possibility to play with Grande and Valskis. They also have the possibility to qualify," he concluded.
