Fakebba Saine, head coach of the First Division best XI said his side's performance was not impressive due to lack of training.

He went on to say that coaching the team is a boost to his coaching career. He thanked organisers for the foresight.

"This kind of initiatives can motivate and encourage both players and coaches," he said.

Muhammed Sanyang, head coach of the Women's 2nd Division League best 11, praised her girls for their wonderful performance.

Meanwhile, certificates were awarded to all players including coaches who participated during the game.
