Imando Torres: "We Will Bounce Back"

Midfielder Imando Torres has insisted that SDX will recover from Friday's disappointing defeat at Phlamze. The Silaus went down 3-1 at MMUField and are now three points behind in the race for the League title. The attacking midfielder admits that the squad were frustrated to have dropped points at the start of the season, but expects there to be many more twists and turns before the campaign comes to a close in 4 games time.
"Experience tells you that other teams are going to drop points between now and the end of the season," the Spanish international told the SDX news team.
"Whether you're going for the league or the Champions League, teams will drop points and it's how you compose yourselves when you drop those points and how you bounce back that's the true measure. Yes, we're hurting, but next weekend brings a whole new batch of fixtures," he added more.
"We've got a game against Soccer Kidz, so it's about what we do and how we bounce back. There's still a lot of football to go and the good thing is that we still have the chance to finish top of the table."
