2. TipNGoal: Your team got their first victory of the season. What can you say about it?
Coach Samdada: It was a strange start to the season, but our message to the players was to be hungrier. That determination helped us get our first victory.
3. Tipngoal: Your team's being playing back-to-back home matches. What's your take on it?

What it means for the table
Hjunt FC sit sixth with three points from three games and a goal difference of 0. DLK World Best FA are ninth with two points and a goal difference of -2, still without a win.
The middle of the table is tight, so this result matters. A Hjunt win would take them to six points, past Diamond Stars (5) and Uzum FC (4) and into the top four. A DLK win would lift them to five points and into the top half. A draw would leave Hjunt on four points and DLK on three.
The top of the table could also change this round. Leaders Arewa FC (7 points) face third-placed Runners FC (6), and Bonez FC (7) take on Uzum FC (4).
Coach Samdada has sent a clear message ahead of this Week 4 encounter: Hjunt FC are determined to build on their first victory and make their home ground a difficult place for visiting teams.
Despite a couple of injury concerns, the coach remains confident in his squad and is focused on improving the team’s performance. Meanwhile, DLK World Best FC will be eager to respond and secure their first victory of the campaign.
Can Samdada’s men secure back-to-back home wins, or will DLK finally claim their first victory?
