In general the purpose of the B team is to give youngsters opportunities, so in any case they are not going to sacrifice one of their products to give Sunil regular chance in first XI. But even he regularly comes as a sub, that will be good too. Also important is what role are they giving him, targetman? deep lying forward? etc etc<br>
It looks like they made 7 substitutions at half time, and 1 more in the 2nd half. so only 3 players got to play the entire 90 minutes. Looks like they are just trying to give their entire squad some playing time. In that context, it doesn't matter if Sunil started or was subbed in. We won't know what their role for him is until later. However, they appear to have a few younger players like this 23 year old Ghanaian striker Nii Plange (plays internationally for Burkina Faso) who played the whole game, so there's going to be some competition for Sunil to fight through.<br>
Its only pre-season. As long as Sunil plays than it is all good. Where Kansas City went wrong is that they thought that they could market him while keeping him on the bench and never playing him... how wrong they were. Sporting will play him, yes as a sub, but he will play... and in the 2nd Division of Portugal.
SCP B played a 1-1 draw against Sporting Naval .

SCP-B won their 4th pre season match 2-0 against Mafra.<br>Sunil got a start this time, but was replaced after halftime to make way for Betinho. The goals were scored in 65th and 85th minute.<br>
At this rate I doubt if sunil would actually make it to the B team once the league starts as they are tetsing him right now and he is playing only a half<br>
