If ever there was a time that the team was to be comfortable in the competition, it’s now. But if it’s not this year, it could be next year or the next. We’ll get there, I’m sure of it.

Aizwal: After sacking Paulo Meneses as head coach for poor results, I- League champions Aizawl FC on Tuesday appointed Santosh Kashyap to the job. Aizawl failed to register a win in their last seven games under Meneses, leading to his sacking. The Mizoram side are sixth on the league table with 17 points from 13 matches and out of reckoning for the title. “Aizawl Football Club is delighted to announce the appointment of Santosh Kashyap as the new head coach for the senior team. Welcome Coach Kashyap, and all the best!” the club announced on its Twitter handle. The 51- yearold Kashyap’s last assignment was with Mumbai FC in the 2016- 17 season of the ILeague. Kashyap will arrive in Aizawl with five games remaining to turn around their fortunes in this season. They play Indian Arrows in their next fixture on February 16.
