The essence of teamwork was a recurring theme, with players discussing how they were truly “playing for each other.” The blend of diverse personalities contributed to a unique environment described by one player as a “zoo.” Despite the chaos, this mix helped the team bond strongly, enabling them to face challenges both on and off the field.
