"That was the beauty of football. We played good football in the last match with Bengaluru FC but our strikers could not covert the chances that came our way," Royals coach Santosh Kashyap told PTI.
"We will continue to play the game with a strong determination. We are prepared to turn tables against Dempo SC tomorrow," he said.
After three wins from four games, the Royals are second in the standings with nine points in their kitty, a point behind table toppers Pune FC.
"The boys should enjoy one game at a time and not to be under undue pressure to top the table. That is more important for us at the moment," he said.

As many as eight of their top players including Haroon Amiri, Pronoy Halder, Jewel Raja, Romeo Fernandes, Calum Angus, Narayan Das and Peter Carvalho are ruled out of tomorrow's match.
"There is no excuse when come for a game and whoever makes it to the playing XI will have a job to do for Dempo," Papas asserted even as he praised Kashyap and Royal Wahingdoh for their good show.
"Royal Wahingdoh has made a fantastic start to the league, their coach is doing a good job in building a team that plays a really interesting style of football which is very attractive to watch and difficult to come up against," he said.
"We have to play to our strength and try to control the game and be proactive with the ball," he said.
