“I am so excited to get the goals. The coach gave me the instructions of playing the box to box role and I thank God the goal came -we won the match” Tobi said.
“Before we came for the match, the Acting General Manager came to the hotel and told us we need to score more goals so that we can be in better position on the log; That gave me the motivation and enough confidence coming into the game and I believe we will do more in the next match, he added.
