When questioned about the tactical prowess exhibited in the second half, especially with the introduction of substitutes Mohammed and Billiamin, Coach Ajibola detailed the challenges faced.
“The second half was a bit difficult because they were now compact and they sat back. It was a very low block, as it is. So we tried to play through them,” he explained.
The strategic substitution of Mohammed and Billiamin, known for their intricate passes, ultimately led to the breakthrough, showcasing the team’s adaptability and determination.
Regarding defensive concerns, Coach Ajibola reassured, “The concern is, are the boys improving? And the kind of goals we conceded today are not the kind of goals we used to concede before.”
He highlighted the team’s progress in addressing set-piece situations and expressed a commitment to continuous improvement, aiming to enhance defensive capabilities every week.
In summary, Beyond Limits FC’s exhilarating victory not only showcased their offensive prowess but also underscored the team’s resilience and strategic acumen under Coach Ajibola’s leadership.
