Heartland Technical Adviser Emmanuel Amuneke has said the team will get better with more games.
Heartland recorded their first win of the campaign with a 1-0 victory over Niger Tornadoes at the Dan Anyiam Stadium on Sunday.
The tactician declared that the team will build on the win in subsequent games.
Amuneke stated that the team is focused on their target as a group.
‘‘I want to congratulate the team. Everyone put in much effort to ensure we get to this stage. The league is a marathon and when you lose some games, you will be a little upset but we are focused on what we want to achieve,” he told the club’s media and revealed why he has had a slow start.
‘’When you look at Heartland FC last season, a lot happened there and many players left. We are redirecting the course by having very young players that can serve for the future also.
‘’We all understand that when you are in a period of processing, it takes time for things to grow and work. All we need to do now is to review ourselves and look at the area we need to continue to improve as a team knowing that in a team, there will always be moments of mistakes.”
