East Bengal coach Alejandro Menendez expressed his respect and support towards the club’s decision to not participate in the Super Cup 2019.
East Bengal along with seven other I-League clubs had decided to boycott the cup competition due to unfair treatment of the All India Football Federation (AIFF) towards the country’s top division league.
The Spanish coach, after a club’s training session on Friday, confirmed that the team will not be travelling to Bhubaneswar to play their Super Cup round of 16 match against Delhi Dynamos on March 30.
