Super Cup 2023, East Bengal vs Hyderabad FC Highlights: EBFC 3-3 HFC

East Bengal are back in action as they take on the mighty Hyderabad FC in the second game of the Super Cup at the Payyanad Stadium in Manjeri on Thursday, April 13. The Red and Golds squandered a lot of chances as they played a 1-1 draw with Odisha FC in the previous game. Hyderabad defeated Aizawl FC 2-1 in the first match and will hope to maintain their good run in the competition.

In the other match, Aizawl FC and Odisha FC clashed with each other and the winner will have an advantage given the tight contests in the tournament so far. Aizawl finished a distant seventh in the I-League while Odisha also failed to qualify for the playoffs. Odisha FC managed to defeat Aizawl FC 3-0. 

Aizawl coach Caetano Pinho believes they can certainly compete with the best teams if they have the right mindset. "The change we need is in our mindset. We must have the confidence that we can compete with the best teams in the country. We will try to take out positives from our first match and do our best to win this time."

Incidentally, this will be the last tournament for Hyderabad FC under the management of Manolo Marquez and the Spaniard is quite determined to leave on a positive note. , “I am not really interested in the previous results because anything can happen in this game.

“East Bengal are a dangerous side who played really well against Odisha and we are now prepared for a tough game in the Super Cup.

“I believe that this competition is a chance for all the players who have been with us throughout the season. They all deserve a chance and we could see some fresh names in this game."
