Satisfied with the overall performance, Olaoye highlighted the need for improvement. “I am satisfied with the performance of the girls because they played exactly as we wanted them to.
We created a lot of chances though we didn’t score. We will work on that again. There are lapses and mistakes that we still need to go back to the drawing board and work on.”
Olaoye’s reflections showcase a comprehensive analysis, acknowledging both the positives and areas for refinement as the team progresses in the league.
