FC Bethel defeated FC Charlessan 1-0 in a keenly contested game on Saturday to go top of the 2021 Fusion Football Championship table on 13 points from 5 games.
Commenting on the game, FC Bethel Technical Director, Nathaniel Olagunju told Sports247:
“Our focus for now is to keep pressing high in each game. For Charlessan, we’ve met them twice in friendlies and we defeated them in those two games. We knew this match is not going to be as easy as it comes by, that is why my boys gave it their all so that we can get something out of the game.”
With Bethel sitting atop the league standings and still without a loss, Olagunju says his team is the club to beat.
“The team to beat is Bethel. Each game we get better because we are also prepared. We don’t want to be fluke like last year after doing well at the Super 8 everybody gave it to us but we disappointed our fans. We don’t want to disappoint them this time around.
“I am privileged to be part of this Fusion league because it is giving a lot of our boys good exposure and good platform for development.” he concluded.
