Dannaz FC Technical Director, Fatai Akande has reacted to his side throwing away an early lead in their 2-1 loss to Dino FC in the Creative Championship Cup.
Dannaz FC took a first-minute lead through Savio Idezi but were pegged back when Elijah Adekunle found the back of the net for Dino FC in the 22nd minute. Hyacinth Ogonna’s 63rd-minute goal settled the tie in favor of Dino FC.
“It’s a game of football. It comes with different phases,” Akande said to Sports247 after the game. “A game comes with different things. These are the things the guys need to learn. You started the game so well, you scored first, can you keep it? Can you keep it compact?
Akande urged his players to learn from the experience saying:” And you can see the two goals, one was a penalty, one was from an error. So when you make such mistakes you get punished. We can only learn from it and keep working hard.”
“We have to stay focused and the guys have to learn from it. You have to work hard, you have to play as a team to have the chance to win against mature sides.”
