All is set for
the Ramadan football tournament as the preparation match between FC Dubai and
Iranian national team was played on Wednesday, and it ended 3-2 in favour of
Iranian national team
The match,
which kicked off at Iranian stadium on April 18th, at exactly 10pm
set the stage for the Ramadan tournament competition which will soon kick off
officially
It was a great
competition between the two teams as they displayed various football skills
which drew a lot of applause from football lovers who had thronged the stadium
to cheer their darling teams.
At the end of
the match, a Nigerian and Central defense marshal of FC Dubai, who is also the
captain of the team, Ogochukwu Joseph, was voted as the man of the match.
Speaking to Daylight.ng
after the match, Joseph said the match
was an experience but unfortunately they lost.
“Without
mincing words, the match came with numerous positivity. The sad thing is that
we lost.
“We actually
put in a great effort to equalize the match but it all proved abortive.
“With this
experience we do hope that we will be able to use it to correct all the mistake
we made during the match,” he added.
The defender who
played grassroot football at under 16 level with Togo football club and later
moved to Stuttgart FC in 2015 before pitching
his tenth with FC Dubai last year was a delight to behold as many fans shouted
his name in appreciation of his football skills.
