"It will be very difficult but nothing is impossible. With their big names, we don't might, we will overcome them. No matter what the case maybe, we will do our possible best," Arday told journalists.

 
"We know it is a rivalry match but the senior are psyching us up not to lose focus and concentrate on the game and no matter what the case maybe, we will overcome them."
