Assured of a place in the semi-finals of the Indian Super League Season Two, Delhi Dynamos’ marquee manager-cum-player Roberto Carlos says they are aiming to continue the winning momentum and finish at the top of pecking order.

“Qualifying for the play-offs feels great. The players’ morale is on a high after the last win and we would want to continue with our momentum against Kerala as well. We are looking forward to play our last two league games in front of home fans,” Carlos said.

The Dynamos have become the third team after defending champions Atletico de Kolkata and Goa FC to qualify for the last four stage with 21 points from 12 games.

The Dynamos finished fifth last year and missed qualification for the semi-finals by a single point. However, in this season they have lifted themselves into the semis with two games to spare.

Having narrowly missed out on the semis last season, Delhi have displayed an improved brand of football right from the beginning of the season.

The team, coached by one of the all-time best left-backs and former Brazilian World Cup winner Carlos, has been one of the best in terms of defending and has let the least number of goals go through their post.

Prashant Agarwal, DDFC president said, “Delhi Dynamos have given their fans a reason to celebrate and there is no stopping them now.

“With the current form of the team, we are confident to qualify for the finals but that can only happen with the love and support of our fans. We welcome with open arms all the DDFC fans to come and cheer for their home team in the upcoming matches.”
