Part 2/8:
From the outset, the team encountered adversity. A shaky start with a fumbled opening kickoff led to an immediate touchdown for the Eagles, which set a challenging tone for the rest of the match. The coach stressed that overcoming such early deficits is critical when playing against a strong opponent, noting that falling behind by seven points right away was too large a hill to climb. Despite this setback, he appreciated the resilience of his players, who continued to compete until the final whistle, showing great energy and attitude in the locker room after the game.
