Kibu Vicuna on tough Kerala Blasters challenge: This team hasn’t qualified for three years

Kerala Blasters have two points to show after four matches in the current edition of the Indian Super League (ISL). Kibu Vicuna’s team have impressed in phases but have struggled to get the job done.The Spanish coach was asked if he found the Kerala Blasters challenge tougher than what he expected.

“No, because you never know how we are going to start the season. I knew we have a tough challenge. I knew that this team hadn't qualified for the playoff for the last two (three) seasons,” said Vicuna.

It is believed that Vicuna could field both Gary Hooper and Jordan Murray against Bengaluru FC this Sunday as the club has struggled to get going offensively with just three goals to show in over 360 minutes.
