With the semi-final spots still up for grabs among the top five teams, this match holds significant importance for both sides.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Reflecting on their previous meeting on January 20, where Soorma clinched a narrow 2-1 victory courtesy of goals from Prabhjot Singh and Maninder Singh, head coach Jeroen Baart emphasised the team's resilience and strategic execution.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\u201cOur players showcased exceptional determination to secure a narrow win against the Tigers last time around. Securing that win was pivotal, but we are aware that the upcoming match presents a new challenge and we are prepared to showcase the same attitude in the match tomorrow,\" he said.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The Tigers are on top of the points table with 18 points from nine games. Rupinder Pal Singh and Jugraj Singh have been the standout players for them, scoring five and eight goals respectively. Hence, the penalty corner defence will be a critical area for Soorma.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
Head coach Baart acknowledged the strengths of the Bengal Tigers, noting, \"They are a formidable team with a strong track record this season. We respect their capabilities from penalty corners but remain confident in our preparation and our first rushers who have been exceptional in closing down drag flickers throughout the season so far.\"<\/p>\r\n\r\n
