Hyderabad FC coach Phil Brown is ecstatic after his side's 2-1 win over Kerala Blasters, on Saturday.
"It's a really good feeling winning any game of football but winning our first game at home, under a lot of pressure (was special)," he told the assembled reporters at the post match address.
"The most important part of tonight's performance was character. It wasn't quality in terms of great football or anything like that. I asked the players to wear the shirt with pride and hopefully tonight will go a long way towards wakening the place (Hyderabad) up from a football perspective," he added.
