While individual statistics were limited, the season's true highlight was the collective effort of the squad. The top players—Manuel Pinto, Fabian Cornejo, Francisco Ramos, Charles Stone, and Ernesto Aguilar—contributed in various ways, embodying the team-player ethos. Their versatility and dedication helped maintain team cohesion, even if goal-scoring opportunities remained scarce.

Areas for Improvement

The primary area for development lies in attacking efficiency. The team’s 19 goals indicate a need to sharpen offensive tactics and improve finishing. Additionally, bolstering defensive resilience to reduce the number of goals conceded could help convert more matches into wins. Building a more potent attacking line and refining defensive organization will be crucial for climbing the league table.
