Mumbai City FC and India star Lalrindika Ralte was one of the key performers and goal scorers in the 2-1 win against Atlético de Kolkata on Sunday.

Talking to indiansuperleague.com, the midfielder from Mizoram said, “Today we played well, so we won. It was a tough game and we finally got three points. It was very nice winning at home.”

“We still have a chance, we will fight till the last match, and it also depends on some results (from other games); but we will go all out in our last match to qualify.”

“The crowd I think was amazing, they support us in every match and I don’t think we can play without them. We won the match without Nicolas (Anelka) and I think this is the best moment of my life.”

“If we qualify for the semis and the final, there’s a big advantage for us and we will surely win,” Dika stated on the chance of playing the Hero Indian Super League (ISL) final at the D.Y. Patil Stadium in Mumbai.

Mumbai City FC need to win their final match against NorthEast United FC on Wednesday and hope that other results go in their favour to book a spot in the knock-out stage.
