Kun Khalifat head coach Obinna Uzoho remains unfazed by his side’s difficult start to the new NPFL season, despite the Owerri club still searching for their first win after three matches, having collected just two points so far.
First Defeat Of The Campaign
Kun Khalifat suffered their opening loss of the season on Sunday, going down 4-2 away to Bendel Insurance at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium in Benin City. The result leaves them 14th in the table with two points from three games.
Uzoho Calls For Patience
Despite the setback, Uzoho urged his players to stay focused, insisting there is no cause for alarm this early in the season. He said, “This season has just started,” and expressed his determination to improve on what he described as a difficult campaign last time out.
Oriental Derby Awaits
Kun Khalifat will have the chance to open their winning account when they host fellow Owerri side Rangers in an Oriental derby at the Dan Anyiam Stadium on Sunday.
