Share on FacebookShare on TwitterShare on WhatsappShare on EmailShare on Telegram

Plateau United’s coach, Mbwas Mangut, has made it clear that the team is determined to secure a spot in continental competitions for the upcoming 2024-25 season. This goal comes after the team missed out on a place last season, which was a disappointment for both the players and their loyal fans.

In the 2023/24 season, Plateau United finished fifth in the league standings, a position that, while respectable, was not enough to qualify for continental tournaments. The disappointment of falling short was particularly felt in the final two matches of the season, where crucial points were lost.

Coach Mangut reflected on this, noting that the team faced significant challenges, including strong performances from competitors like Shooting Stars, who played a role in ending their hopes.

Mangut has acknowledged the competitive nature of the league. “Every team in the league is also pushing for a continental ticket,” he said. “It’s important to recognize that we are not alone in this pursuit, and it is too early to confidently say we will achieve it.”

This statement highlights the pressure and challenge that every team faces as they strive for the same goal.
To achieve its objective, Plateau United is focusing on several key areas.

Mangut emphasized the importance of teamwork and consistency throughout the season. “Our dream is to work towards it,” he said, stressing that the team must maintain their focus and commitment. The coach believes that each player must understand their role and contribute positively to the team’s performance.

In addition to teamwork, Mangut is also looking at the tactical side of the game. He plans to analyze past performances to identify areas that need improvement. This includes working on both offensive and defensive strategies to ensure that the team can compete effectively against their rivals.

The coaching staff will also look for opportunities to strengthen the squad through training and possibly bringing in new talent.

Coach Mangut expressed gratitude for the loyal supporters of Plateau United, acknowledging that their encouragement can make a significant difference in the team’s morale. He hopes that with the fans behind them, the players will be motivated to give their best on the pitch.

As the new season approaches, the atmosphere within the team is one of optimism and determination. The players are eager to put in the hard work required to meet their goals. With a clear plan and strong leadership, Plateau United is ready to face the challenges ahead in their quest for a continental ticket.

Plateau United’s commitment to securing a place in continental competitions reflects their ambition and determination. Coach Mbwas Mangut is focused on building a strong, cohesive team that can rise to the occasion, and he is confident that with hard work and dedication, they can turn their aspirations into reality.
