A storming first half saw Engesha scoring twice with Jang Chang adding the other, effectively killing the tie as a contest as Red Angels joined UAE’s Abu Dhabi Country Club as the early pacesetters in the group.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s hard to rate our performance but we enjoyed our match today,\u201d said Kim.<\/p>\n
The 26-year-old Kenyan Engesha also praised her team\u2019s output, having seen how hard they had worked to get to this level.<\/p>\n
\u201cToday\u2019s performance was great. Both teams played well and you see the preparation we put in coming into this tournament,\u201d said Engesha.<\/p>\n
As for Sabah, head coach Justin Ganai will have plenty to reflect on but the manner in which his side regrouped after the break and produced a more resilient performance will at least provide some form of positives.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe expected the result, to be honest, because we know the Korean team is very good and they were in the final last year,\u201d said Ganai.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe made a few mistakes in the first half and that cost us. In the second half, we played defensively better and it was positive that we didn\u2019t concede any.\u201d<\/p>\n
Next up for Red Angels is a meeting with Abu Dhabi on Sunday with Sabah facing Wuhan Jiangda Women\u2019s FC on the same day.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
