ISL: Chennaiyin FC assistant coach Vivek Nagul - We have the quality to take all three points against FC Goa

Chennaiyin FC assistant coach Vivek Nagul said the team will give their all to win at home

Following their win in the previous match of the Indian Super League over Kerala Blasters, Chennaiyin FC cemented their position in the top four, and assured themselves of a semifinal spot. Here are the quotes from the pre-match press conference of Chennaiyin FC assistant coach Vivek Nagul and defender Bernard Mendy.

They take on FC Goa on Friday at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Chennai. FC Goa have been in great form of late, as they have salvaged their ISL campaign, and almost assured themselves of a semi-final berth.

On already qualifying

Yes, we have achieved our target of reaching the semis but we are still taking one game at a time and are determined to win our final two league games in front of our home crowd. 

On rotating the squad

We might rest a few players and give opportunities to those who haven't played much but the team will be decided tomorrow. 

On FC Goa

FC Goa are in good form, we will respect them but we will have our own gameplan as well and we have the quality to take all three points again. 

Bernard Mendy 

On what Nesta will add to the team

He is a quality player with plenty of experience so his addition will be great for us. We are all looking forward to play with him when he joins the team. 

On Goa's attack 

Yes they are in great form but we will try to be at our best and give a strong team performance. 

On facing Pires 

Before and after the games we are talking a lot and having fun because we know each other for a long time. But friendship will go away once the game starts.
