“We didn’t deserve to lose the match” - SC East Bengal boss Mario Rivera after loss against Mumbai City FC
Meanwhile, SC East Bengal remain glued to the bottom-spot with just two games left in their season. The Red & Gold Brigade have looked proactive under Mario Rivera but haven’t been able to win games.
Even tonight, SCEB had multiple chances to bag a goal against Mumbai City FCbut failed to convert any of them. Head coach Rivera, however, felt his side didn’t deserve to lose the game.
The Torchbearers next face NorthEast United FC and a victory against them could pull SC East Bengal out of the bottom spot.
