With this loss, SCEB has fallen to tenth place in the points table, as it is winless in its opening three games.
Meanwhile, SCEB head coach Jose Manuel Diaz vented his frustration at his side post defeat, slamming the quality of football his boys have played on the season so far. He was also bold enough to admit that his side does not possess the quality yet needed for an elite-level tournament like the ISL.
