Kolkata, Dec 27:
The upset win over leaders Chennai City has further embellished their dream run on I league debut but Real Kashmir coach David Robertson says the two clashes against Kolkata Giants will determine where they stand.
Real Kashmir are gearing up for their biggest challenge so far with tomorrow’s clash against iconic East Bengal. They take on Mohun Bagan on January 6.
Robertson said if they could win against them it will be a “shock”.
“The pressure is on them to get results. If we don’t get result, who cares. But if we managed to get something, then it’s a big shock,” said Robertson.
“We did well against Chennai. It might be a one-off game but who knows. East Bengal and Mohun Bagan are the biggest clubs in India.”
Robertson said he himself was surprised to see “where we are”.
“It may be a false position but the games against East Bengal, Mohun Bagan will dictate where we end up in the season. After our game against Mohun Bagan, we will know exactly where we’re heading in the season,” he said on a realistic note.
The club from the valley began its away journey with a draw against Gokulam Kerala and followed it up with a memorable win over league leaders Chennai City and are now just one point behind the latter. (PTI)
