KUBWA FOOTBALL LEAGUE 2026/2027 POST-MATCH PRESS CONFERENCE UZUM FC 1–0 GOZIE FA Friday, 9 October 2026 PW Primary School, Kubwa, Abuja UZUM FC COACH — POST-MATCH RESPONSES 1. Coach, congratulations on the victory! Your team secured a hard-fought 1–0 win over Gozie FA. How do you feel about the team’s performance and this important three points? Thank you very much. First of all, I give glory to Almighty God for this victory. It was a very tough and competitive match against Gozie FA, and I give credit to both teams for their efforts. I am very happy with my players because they showed determination, discipline, commitment, and the desire to win. A 1–0 victory may look narrow, but in football, what matters most is how you approach the game, take your chances, and defend your lead until the final whistle. These three points are very important for Uzum FC because they will boost our confidence and motivate us to work even harder in the remaining matches. However, we are not carried away by this victory. We still have areas to improve, especially in our finishing and overall teamwork. I also want to appreciate our supporters and everyone who believes in this team. This victory is for all of us. We will celebrate today, learn from our performance, and return to training with greater focus because our journey is far from over. 2. The match remained goalless at half-time. What tactical adjustments did you make during the second half to help your team get the winning goal? At half-time, we realised that we needed to be more aggressive in attack while maintaining our defensive discipline. I encouraged the players to stay focused, move the ball faster, create more chances, and take advantage of the spaces available. We also worked on improving our communication and making better decisions in the final third. The players responded positively, showed great determination, and continued fighting until we got the winning goal. I give credit to the entire team for their hard work, discipline, and commitment. It was a collective effort, and this victory is a result of our teamwork. We will continue working hard, learning from every match, and preparing for the challenges ahead. 3. Abdulraham scored the decisive goal in the 72nd minute. What can you say about his performance? Abdulraham deserves a lot of credit for his performance today. Scoring the decisive goal in the 72nd minute shows his determination, concentration, and ability to take advantage of an important moment in the game. His contribution was very important because that goal secured all three points for us. However, football is a team game, and I must also appreciate the entire team for their hard work, discipline, and commitment throughout the match. Abdulraham took his opportunity when it mattered most, and I hope this performance motivates him to keep improving. Congratulations to him and the entire Uzum FC family. 4. Your team kept a clean sheet and defended well until the final whistle. Were you satisfied with the defensive organisation? Yes, I am very satisfied with our defensive organisation and the commitment the players showed throughout the match. Keeping a clean sheet is a collective achievement, and I give credit to our defenders, goalkeeper, midfielders, and the entire team for working together. The closing minutes were challenging because our opponents put us under pressure, but our players remained focused, disciplined, and organised. They followed instructions, communicated well, and showed determination to protect our lead until the final whistle. However, we still have areas to improve because there is always room for progress. This clean sheet gives us confidence, and we will continue working hard to maintain our defensive strength while improving our overall performance. I am proud of the team, and we dedicate this victory to our supporters. Three points, one clean sheet! 5. Gozie FA proved to be a difficult opponent. What was the biggest challenge your team faced? First of all, I want to give credit to Gozie FA because they gave us a very difficult challenge. They were well organised, fought hard for every ball, and made it difficult for us to create clear scoring opportunities, especially in the first half. Our biggest challenge was breaking through their defence while remaining solid at the back. However, I give credit to my players for their patience, discipline, teamwork, and determination. We encouraged them to stay focused, keep moving the ball, and take their chances when they came. Fortunately, Abdulraham’s goal in the 72nd minute made the difference. Even after scoring, we remained organised and defended together until the final whistle. 6. How much confidence will this victory give your players ahead of their next Kubwa Football League fixture? This victory will give our players a huge boost in confidence and motivation as we prepare for our next Kubwa Football League fixture
