The new manager of FC Ebedei, Fred Oliseh, despite losing 1-3 to Ikorodu City FC on the opening day of the new NNL season, expressed pride in the character of his players during the match.
Oliseh made a losing debut in his first game of the season at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena, but noted that the team is young and some are playing at such level for the first time in their careers.
FC Ebedei are currently third in group B3 of the NNL, while Ekiti United remain rock bottom on match week 1 of the season.
“First of all, I’m super proud of my team, we are probably one of the youngest teams you will ever find in the country.
“I think inexperience played a part, first half we conceded two silly goals, but I’m proud of the boys, they’re learning, every day we are learning, every day as a team, as a coaching crew, we are learning,” Fred Oliseh told FL.
“This is my first professional game as a coach as well, So there are a lot of learning experiences to take from this. so yes, inexperience, but it was a good all-round performance.”
