The head coach of Heartland FC, Emmanuel Amuneke, has pleaded for time following the team's slow start to the season, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

The Naze Millionaires secured their first win of the season last weekend against Niger Tornadoes after 5 match days.

The former Golden Eaglets gaffer acknowledged the slow start and promise an improvement in the team's performance.

"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.

‘’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", he said.
