Also speaking, Technical Adviser of Doma United Football Club Akinade Onigbinde, commended the efforts of his boys, while expressing optimism that it would be sustained.
He said, “Congratulations to everyone of us, we thank God for the game. If I can remember our match against Bayelsa United was 2-0, against Gombe United, 3-0, we have been scoring goals, just that suddenly, the games changed. The matches we played with one goal were tough matches. Even this very one is tough. If you watched our match against Enyimba, Plateau United, they were indeed tough. We are working. I talked to the boys from the beginning of the game, get your goals and feel relaxed. We killed the game from the first half.
“It is a great one. We feel like continuing harder to get results and if the results keep coming, we are going to remain on top of the table. Our plan is to remain among the first three by February ending and if we can make it like that, it would be okay for us.”
Coach of Katsina United FC Bala Abubakar, declined comment.
