Kolkata: Former Atletico de Kolkata support staff Jose Ramirez Barreto has heaped high praises on Jose Molina and his team on winning the ISL trophy for a second time in three years. The Brazilian, who was in charge of player scouting in the first season for the Kolkata franchise said, “I am happy that Atletico de Kolkata has once again won the ISL trophy. Happy for the people in Bengal. It’s good to see teams from Bengal doing well in the national scenario and shine.
Barreto, who is now busy with the Reliance Foundation project, is equally excited at the prospect of winning the tile for a second time. According to Barreto, “I was a part of the team that won the inaugural ISL. My sincere congratulations to all members of the team, support staff and coaches for winning the title a second time,” said Barreto.
The local players are much used to playing in front of big crowds and under pressure. I think they are unfazed by any pressure as they are used to playing in derby in Kolkata
