Here are the excerpts from the interview.What are your thoughts on the match today? Do you think points were dropped by ATK?I think points were lost, we fought hard and you can see the disappointment on everyone. We were all over them [FC Goa], it was [Stephen] Pearson’s first challenge of the game and he received a red card. But this is football all I can say is that we fought, you could see the guys wanted to win since we were at home.What do you think about your own performance, it was a super goal?Yes, it was a good goal but I would rather have the three points instead of the goal but we didn’t, so the goal is not that important.
