Extra Bula FC midfielder Yuta Konagaya, who was named Player of the Match in yesterday’s clash against South Melbourne FC which ended in a 1-all draw, says he is proud of the growing confidence within the team.
Konagaya admits the side struggled during the opening 20 to 25 minutes but says the team settled down and began to play their style of football thereafter.
He says he is really proud of how the players are becoming more confident in their approach and how they are now able to express themselves on the field.
Konagaya adds that while the team still needs to improve in the final third, he is pleased with how the squad is progressing and developing its overall game.
