With backs to the wall, ATK plans to hit back against Goa.



ATK doesn’t have much of a choice. It has to go all out and secure a win against FC Goa to enhance their chances of qualification to the Hero Indian Super League play-offs at the Jawaharlal Nehru Stadium in Fatorda on Thursday.Steve Coppell’s team has the joint-best defensive record in the league this season, having conceded just 15 goals in 15 matches. However, they also have the joint-worst record in the final third, having scored just 15 goals so far. With 21 points, the sixth-placed Kolkata-based club can equal fourth-placed NorthEast United on points with a win against Goa. Sergio Lobera, the FC Goa coach told media that FC Goa will be facing a great team, but he would only like to talk about his players and their performance on the pitch. Last season, it was Lobera's Goa who ended the play-off hopes of Jamshedpur FC, who incidentally were coached by Coppell. The Englishman will be eager to ensure it is not the case again as a loss or a draw will effectively end their chances.
