We are not perfect, says U Mumba Coach Bhaskaran Edachery
U Mumba won their tenth consecutive game in the Star Sports Pro Kabaddi Season three as they brushed aside bottom team Dabang Delhi to finish at the top of the league table. U Mumba will face the Bengal Warriors in the semifinal of the event.
U Mumba Coach Bhaskaran Edachery feels his U Mumba side have made errors and his team isn’t perfect as he prepares U Mumba for the semi-final. “No team is perfect. U Mumba is also not perfect. We are making small mistakes every game and we work on that during training and discuss the problems.
“If one becomes perfect, there is nothing to work on. We still have a scope of improvement and we will try to improve in the semi-final,” Edachery expressed.
Edachery’s skipper was in tune with his coach’s thoughts as Anup Kumar brushed aside talks of a possible procession for U Mumba to the Pro Kabaddi League crown this season.
Anup Kumar felt the semi-final against the Bengal Warriors won’t be an easy ride for his side. “There are no easy games in this league and certainly not in the semi-finals. If a team has reached the semi-finals, then it has to be a very good team and the Bengal Warriors is a strong team,” Anup responded to claims of U Mumba having an easy task in the semi-final.
The semi-finals and the final will be held in New Delhi after being hosted by Mumbai in the two earlier seasons and Anup Kumar felt that he would have loved to have played the two most vital games of the season in the city of dreams. “There will be a difference of course. We won’t have the support we get here in Mumbai, but I hope we will have some support in Delhi as well.
“We have been fortunate to find support all over the country, but none of that is like the support we get here, so they will be missed,” Kumar told Sportskeeda after U Mumba’s win over Dabang Delhi.
U Mumba might not have peaked according to their coach, but the defending champions have certainly showed that they are playing as good as humanly possible at the moment. But they are human in the end and that’s what the remaining three teams in the competition will be counting on.
