In such a scenario, Kotal and McHugh will have a lot of work to do against Jamshedpur FC's Greg Stewart who has been in sublime form. "Tiri is available, maybe he will be in the 20-member squad in the match,” Habas said on his fellow Spaniard who is yet to play a match this season. Habas has confirmed that Tiri would be available in the 20-member squad but it's highly unlikely that the Spaniard central defender would be fully match-fit to last the distance.
A similar script had unfolded for Antonio Lopez Habas' men in their AFC Cup match against FC Nasaf when they conceded six goals after Kotal's own goal. The three-man defence of Pritam Kotal, Carl McHugh and Subhasish Bose has showed inability to bounce back after conceding an early goal as the Islanders opened the floodgates after Vikram Pratap Singh drew first blood in the fourth minute. The departure of Sandesh Jhingan, who has left for Croatian club Sibenik, and injury to Tiri, who is yet to play a match this season, have made the Mariners' central defence fragile. The loss for ATK Mohun Bagan meant that the Mariners have slipped to fourth place in the table and they would look to arrest their slide against a team who are yet to lose from three matches and occupying the fifth position. ATKMB lost their previous game to Mumbai City FC 5-1 while Jamshedpur FC played out a draw in their last game. ATK Mohun Bagan will take on Jamshedpur FC on Monday at the GMC Athletic Stadium in Bambolim, Goa with an aim to get back to winning ways.
