Q. What went wrong today?

A. Zico- Well, when we were playing well, we didn’t score and they scored.

Q. Your team played very well in the second half. Was it a defensive lapse?

A. Zico- It wasn’t a relapse. It was mistake that happens in football. At moments where we couldn’t do anything they scored. It is normal thing to happen in football.

Q. Overall, the players are not performing as a team. Why do you think that is happening?

A. Zico- The team is missing someone who can score a goal. Football is all scoring goals and we don’t have a guy who can score.Today we had four chances to score, but there was no one to score. So we need someone to score a goal.

Q. How much did you miss Robert Pires today?

A. Zico- We shouldn’t be worried about who is there and who is not there on field. With him on the field we lost two matches and drew one, so I don’t how to answer that question of yours.

Q. How would you describe FC Pune City’s goalkeeper?

A. Zico- He was a normal goalkeeper. I know him very well because played for four years in a team that I used to play.

Q. Haroon Amiri made a big difference once he came on the field. Do you think that you could have sent him earlier?

A. Zico- This is the first time I saw him playing. He is a player that made me happy with his game. He played very well. He wants to win to game. So it might be possible that he might be played in future matches. I like players like him in my team.

Q. How much of a loss was it losing Gabriel Fernandes? What is the status now?

A. Zico- The doctor hasn’t said anything yet. We don’t know what the status is. I hope it is not very serious because he left the field in lot of pain.
