Azeez Audu Mohammed, the technical adviser for Katsina United, is visibly elated after his team’s triumph over Sporting Lagos.
In Sunday’s matchday 11 meeting at the Muhammadu Dikko Stadium, the Chanji Boys defeated Jeffrey Buter’s side 2-1.
Luis Dadong scored twice for the hosts in the first half as they dominated the early going.
Mohammed was proud of his team’s determination and effort during the match.
The fact that we prevailed against a strong opponent is more important than keeping a perfect score. Mohammed stated in his post-match analysis that they had taken ten points away from eleven matches.
Being able to defeat them is, thus, no mean accomplishment. Aside from giving the game away, I thought my boys played well. Until we succeed, we will keep plugging away.
