Kerala Blasters VS Athletico De Kolkata

Kerala Blasters 0- 0 Athletico De Kolkata

Rene Meulensteen, who is widely renowned among football lovers for his tactical coaching is currently working with Kerala Blasters as their coach. The Dutchman wanted his players to play incisive one-touch attacking game to break through the defence wall of Athletico De Kolkata. However, Kerala blasters have failed to do that in the highly anticipated first game of the season, as the match ended on a boring goalless draw.

It is quite shocking to note that Kerala Blasters has only won once in their eight encounters against Athletico De Kolkata, which is something Rene Meulensteen should plan to improve, as the season progresses. Let us hope that Kerala Blasters will be able negate needless touches and deliver a fast paced game that creates spaces and goals. The return of Ian Hume and the recently signing of Dimitar Berbatov will help Blastes to do that in the upcoming matches.
