Alausa was quoted on the club’s twitter handle- @Official3SC as saying: “We lost 2-4. We rallied late to reduce the tally despite the shabby first half! It was almost a good recovery. We did not lose hope and that was exactly what we told the boys at half time and that was what happened! We lost it gallantly.”
