Ahead of the upcoming National Sports Festival, coming up, February 14th, player of the Lagos State football team, Salaudeen Noah has stated that his main target is to work very hard, so as to enable him to earn a place in the Lagos State first football team.
Salaudeen Noah said this, after watching his Lagos State team play out an intriguing goalless (0-0) draw against Joy Cometh FC (NNL side) in Agege.
Both teams really gave a good account of themselves as Joy Comet FC came to scoring in the 12th minutes through Damilola Johnson. Some scoring chances were also missed by Team Lagos to end the first half goalless situation.
The second half was dominated by Team Lagos while Ikorodu’s team defense was superb throughout the encounter. A well-deserved penalty which Team Lagos should have converted was missed by Joseph Edeh in 72nd minutes when he sent the ball to a wide range to end the tie in a barren draw.
Speaking after the match with Sports247, Salaudeen Noah stated that his target is to work hard in training and remain focused, as this will enable him to earn a place in the team when the National Sports Festival commences.
“My target is to train hard and remain focused so that I can compete with the starting players in the team because I can score goals too”, he admitted.
Salaudeen Noah is an amazing bright football talent who plays for Buruj Sports Academy in Lagos. He is an attacker and could play from the midfield, which makes him a versatile young talent.
He and his teammates will hope to lead the Lagos State football team to Glory when the National Sports Festival commences in Benin in February.
