Punjab FC head coach Panagiotis Dilmperis expressed his disappointment following the team's narrow 1-0 loss to Kerala Blasters FC in the Indian Super League (ISL). The defeat marked Punjab's fourth consecutive loss, ending in heartbreak as Noah Sadaoui's penalty was the decider.

In a post-match press conference, Dilmperis highlighted the importance of fostering a winning mentality among his young players, who despite missing key chances, were unable to capitalize on Kerala's reduced roster due to multiple red cards.

Emphasizing the need for success-driven results, Dilmperis noted the importance of positive outcomes in nurturing future talents, lamenting missed opportunities and the failure to convert possession into goals in the second half.
