While the attacking output was commendable, the team’s defensive record suggests a need for greater solidity at the back. Improving defensive organization and reducing goals conceded could help convert more draws into wins and climb higher in the league table. Consistency across matches remains a challenge, and focusing on maintaining performance levels throughout the season will be vital.
