New Delhi Heroes coach Cheema Okerie blasted his players for their woeful display in today's 2-1 loss against Titanium Kerala.
"Our boys did not play even 30 percent of their normal game. We had the game in hand but we gifted two goals to the opposition", said a fuming Okerie after the match.
Okerie was particular severe on his goalkeeper Joby Joseph who committed a blunder in the first goal the team conceded.
On the other hand, Titanium coach Rajeev Kumar gave credit to New Delhi Heroes for putting a good display.
"They were the better side. It was our first match in these unfamiliar conditions here at Sikkim but our boys played well", he said.
“My boys will play much better in the semis,” added Kumar.
Titanium must give a better performance in the semis as they run into a formidable Army XI, their Southern neighbours. Army XI is based at Bangalore and have beaten Kerala clubs in the recent past.
“We give Army XI lot of respect.”
