Technical manager Emmanuel Amuneke could not address the press following the devastating defeat and sent his assistant to speak on his behalf. “We will not surrender—no, we won’t back down,” Uzor stated, fighting back tears. “We will continue to fight until the final whistle, as I believe it’s not truly over until it’s really over.” Heartland has gone winless in their last five matches, securing only two points out of a possible 15. This unfortunate stretch has relegated them to 17th place, putting them at significant risk of relegation as they gear up for their match against Sunshine Stars in Akure on Wednesday, a team also fighting to stay up. The game will take place at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne, Ogun State, which serves as a neutral ground.
