Heartland FC Technical Adviser, Kennedy Boboye has said his team is still a work in progress despite their first league victory over Bendel Insurance, BSNSports.com.ng reports. 

The Naze Millionaires ended their winless streak in the 2023/2024 Nigeria Premier Football League season following their 1-0 home win over Bendel Insurance in Owerri.

Boboye was full of praise to his players for playing to instructions and also ensuring they kept another clean sheet on their way to clinching their first league win of the season.

He said the task of taking the Owerri side out of the drop zone had just begun and that they would go to Gombe ahead of the weekend game with Gombe United brimming with confidence that they could surprise their hosts with the game to be played under closed doors. 

"I must first of all thank and congratulate the players for the first win of the season. They all fought as a team to get the desired result against Bendel Insurance.

"With this win, we shall go to Gombe with the confidence that we can get a good result. Heartland is still work in progress and we shall continue working until we are able to get the team we desired."

With the victory, Heartland FC left the bottom spot they previously occupied to move to the 19th spot with 10 points as they extended their unbeaten streak against Bendel Insurance to five games.
