Compel FC Coach Mutimba attributes FKF Cup victory to team maturity

FKF Division One League side Compel FC head coach George Mutimba has lauded the maturity of his players following their hard-fought 1-0 victory over Green Snipers in the FKF Cup Round of 64 at the weekend.

The Webuye-based club's narrow win secured their place in the next stage of the prestigious tournament, as they now await their Round of 32 opponent.

Speaking to Citizen Digital, Mutimba emphasized that the composure and discipline displayed by his squad played a crucial role in the triumph. "The maturity of these players was the key factor in our victory. The opponents were good and the weather was a bit of a challenge for us but we remained steadfast and executed our game plan effectively," he said.

With a deep understanding of the stakes involved, Mutimba has vowed to approach every match in the tournament with the seriousness of a final. He believes that underestimating any opponent at this stage would be a costly mistake.

"We respect every team that has made it to the Round of 32. Each game will be approached with great focus and determination. We must continue to play with discipline and hunger if we want to advance further," Mutimba stated.

Meanwhile, Compel FC have already proven their capability in this competition, having reached the quarter-finals in the previous edition where they were knocked out by AFC Leopards. Their ambition to go even further this time around remains clear, and their next challenge will be determined in the upcoming draw.
