Speaking after the contest, former Remo Stars head coach Daniel Ogunmodede praised his team’s preparation and resilience, acknowledging the difficulty of facing a Doma United side that had begun the campaign strongly.
“We expected a tough game because they have gone three matches unbeaten with nine points and never conceded, but we prepared very well for them. Not playing last weekend gave us an ample opportunity to prepare more for them and no doubt, you could see they gave us a tough time,” Ogunmodede said.
He added that the team had to make tactical adjustments after Doma United reduced the deficit.
“We played to our strength. We tried to get two goals in the first half. The goal we conceded after the second half created a lot of pressure for us, which was why we brought in fresh faces in the midfield and attack to stop their center backs from taking the ball forward,” the Super Eagles assistant coach concluded.
Sai Masu Gida will now turn their attention to Matchday 5, when they travel to Lagos on Wednesday to face Inter Lagos at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena, Onikan.
