“In the first half we didn’t attack the depth very little. That was the biggest mistake that didn’t allow us to go and exploit the superiority,” Osimhen to the club’s official website.
“In the second half we were better at aggression. Osimhen’s entry was important, but I have no doubts about the boy.

“He is a quality striker and he is also a boy of great humanity. After a few days he was already a point stable in the locker room. He is loved by everyone and for me, this component is very important “.

“In the last half hour we went to 4-2-3-1, and we had to take some risks. We have our principles of the game that are firm, what we still have to achieve is intensity”

  • Some of us were expecting osimhen to start the game from the beginning but the coach did well to ease him into the game in the second half. His time will come very soon. The coach and players in the team believe in his abilities which is important. He will surely deliver the goals for the team.
