BRI Liga 1: Still Goalless at Persib, Mailson Lima Gets Support from Bojan Hodak
Persib Bandung has been struggling to find the back of the net in the BRI Liga 1 this season, with Brazilian striker Mailson Lima failing to score in the first few matches. However, the team’s head coach Bojan Hodak has come out in support of Lima, urging fans to be patient and have faith in the striker.
Lima, who joined Persib in the off-season, was expected to be a key player for the team this season. However, he has so far failed to live up to expectations, with his performances coming under scrutiny from fans and the media.
Despite the criticism, Hodak has been quick to defend Lima, insisting that the striker is working hard and doing everything he can to help the team. The coach has called on fans to support Lima and give him time to adapt to the league.
Hodak is no stranger to working with foreign players, having coached in various countries before coming to Persib. He believes that Lima has the quality to succeed in the BRI Liga 1 and is confident that the goals will come for the striker.
In a recent press conference, Hodak said, “Mailson is a talented player and we believe in him. He is working hard in training and we are confident that he will start scoring soon. I urge the fans to be patient and continue to support him.”
Lima himself has remained positive despite his goal drought, saying that he is determined to repay the faith shown in him by the club and the fans. He has promised to keep working hard and to do everything he can to help Persib win matches.
While the pressure is mounting on Lima to start scoring, he will no doubt take comfort in the support of his coach and teammates. With Hodak backing him to succeed, Lima will be hoping to break his goal-scoring duck and help Persib climb up the BRI Liga 1 standings.
In the meantime, fans will be eagerly watching and waiting to see if Lima can finally find the back of the net and help Persib secure much-needed victories in the league.
