Chief Coach of Glory Youth Football Academy, Olusola Babatunde, has suspended his players for two weeks following their poor run in the ongoing Boska Soccer Championship.

Future Pro FC defeated Glory Youth 2-0 in the second round of the competition which was played recently at the Ikeja Military Cantonment.

The defeat was a disgrace to Babatunde who said that if his boys had not played to the gallery they ought to have won the match.

He told GSG that he is not happy with the poor performance of his players, adding that the players lacked discipline and team work which cost them the seond round match.

“It is true that I suspended the players after their defeat in the match against Future Pro FC. My players underrated their opponents and I believe that if I suspend them, it will serve as a punishment so that next time they would be serious,” he said.
