A: Thank you so much. It feels great to taste victory again at our home turf after a difficult phase of three losses. But that's what football is all about. Every team goes through a phase where things don't work according to plan, but focusing on our work, training daily, and keeping the team atmosphere positive is very important. We knew this game could be the turning point, and our coach believed in us to make it happen. I've been practicing this technique since my childhood, and I was confident I could score. It felt right in the moment, and I'm happy to have contributed to the team when they needed me. I wish to be a regular goal-scorer for the team and help them as much as possible.
