FC IfeanyiUbah striker, Bello Kofar-Mata has expressed gratitude to God for making it possible for him to win his third Federation Cup trophy, making him one of the few Nigerians to have achieved such feat.
The former Kano Pillars player had won it two times with Heartland FC and the victory over Nasarawa United with FC IfeanyiUbah makes it number three for him.
Kofar-Mata who featured in the match but was substituted in the second half said he is excited by the victory because his team worked hard for it.
He said although it was a very close contest, FC IfeanyiUbah were destined to emerge winners of the Federation Cup so there was nothing their opponents could do.
Kofar-Mata maintained that even as he did not score, he made the necessary contribution and is happy to be part of the history made by FC IfeanyiUbah.
“I am elated to be a three time winner of the Federation Cup. If you will remember, I won it two times with Heartland FC.
“The victory with FC IfeanyiUbah now makes it three titles for me and I am really excited. There are only few people who have recorded this success.
“It was not an easy match because Nasarawa United also gave us a good fight. They stretched us and that was why the match ended on penalties.
“We composed ourselves very well and that was why we emerged victorious. Had it been we didn’t hold our nerves, we would have wasted the chance to make history,” he said.
Kofar-Mata also dedicated the victory to his family who he said have been supporting him in his chosen career.
