Atletico de Kolkata coach Antonio Lopez Habas on Thursday said Chennaiyin FC midfielder Elano will be a worry for his team in Friday's crucial match at the Salt Lake stadium.
"Elano is a fantastic player. We are always worried about Elano's freekick," Habas told reporters on the eve of their match against the Chennai team.
Asked about ATK's plans to handle the Elano and Mendosa, the coach said, "We are playing against the whole team and not against one person. We cannot emphasise on any one player. We have to beat the Chennai team.
Habas added that ATK will be banking on their midfielders to win the game.
He expressed confidence of winning the match, saying, "We always plan safe with discipline and respect to our opponents".
Meanhile, ATK's mercurial striker Fikru is happy that the team members have got enough rest before the match.
"There was only 2-3 days' gap between the last two matches. Now we have got some gap and so we can do better," Fikru said.
He said that they were working very hard to win the match which would decide the topper in the points table on their home ground.
"We will have to win tomorrow," Fikru said.
