ISL 2020-21 | Owen Coyle happy with the improvement as Jamshedpur FC end season on a high

 

Jamshedpur FC head coach looked very happy as his side registered a 3-2 victory over Bengaluru FC in their last ISL match of the season at Tilak Maidan, in Goa, on Thursday.

It has been a tough season for every team considering the pandemic. Jamshedpur have had their share of struggles. Although they couldn’t make it to the playoffs, Coyle was happy to see the encouraging signs towards the end of the season.

“It is important to win three points. It is a tough week to win games. We finish with three points. We showed quality. Bengaluru are a professional team with some good players, they can fight back. There was a lack of concentration. A lack of focus. But the important thing is to finish the season strongly and we did that,” Coyle said after the game.

“I don’t think we were complacent. I think there was a lack of concentration. You need somebody to take charge. We need to do better in all situations,” he added.

Coyle also talked about his plans for the next season,”We have improved enormously. Jamshedpur took 5 points from the last 10 games last season. And we took 12. We have been fantastic.  There are areas we need to get better and as a coach, we will need to bring that to the club.

“The approach is always trying to improve. And if you’re trying to bring in players, it is to make them better. I want to thank the fans for the support, it has been unwavering,” he added.

“Thank you so much for all your (supporters) support. It is always difficult when the fans aren’t here. Please come (to the stadium). Be vocal. Be colorful,” he said.

After playing 20 matches, Jamshedpur finished at the sixth place in the ISL table with 26 points. They won seven matches during the season, while losing six and drawing seven. The Men of Steel won three of their last four matches and they will be eager to carry this form forward into the next season.
