Sydney FC Head Coach Ufuk Talay says his squad are determined to finish their AFC Champions League 2 group stage campaign on a high note this Thursday night when they meet Filipino team Kaya Iloilo FC in their final match before the knockout stages in February.
The Sky Blues are already qualified for the last 16 following their 4-1 win in Hong Kong last week but Talay is keen to continue the momentum and goalscoring following two successive big wins.
“We go into every game looking to win and to score as many goal as possible and Thursday night’s clash with Kaya will be no different,” he said.
“We scored four goals in each of our last two matches and as long as we score more than the opposition that’s all I’m concerned about.
“Kaya gave us a tough game in Manila and we expect nothing less again, as they will want to end their campaign with a win.
“We’ll be the same and it’s a good opportunity for a few players who haven’t played a lot recently to get some match minutes into their legs as well.”
The Sky Blues beat Western Sydney Wanderers 4-2 in their last home Isuzu-UTE A-League game and will also face Champions Central Coast Mariners away in Gosford on Sunday night in a busy period.
Tickets for Thursday night’s match against Kaya are available from Ticketek.
