IN TOUCH WITH MARLON HEUGH

MARLON Heugh is currently on top of his game for TS Galaxy Football Club between the sticks in the DSTV Premiership.

In the past three league outings, Heugh has kept two clean sheets. He took over the number one jersey from Winsten Van Der Linde who has three clean sheets under his belt this season.

The 30-year-old, Heugh has sight his sights on adding more clean sheets.

TS Galaxy (TSG): How does it feel to command a regular starting berth?

Marlon Heugh (MH): Everything in life is about timing. God knows when it is the right time for you to have the influence in football. It is very good to be back playing. I was out for probably 10 months. To be back after such a long time, it is great. I want to thank the technical team for giving me the opportunity.

TSG: You’ve kept two clean sheets in the past two games, what has worked for you?

MH: The clean sheets are helping me with confidence. They are inspiring and keeping me going. The defence infront of me is working harder to keep those attackers away from me. The praise should go to those guys infront of me for helping me.

TSG: The club is getting results, what has changed?

MH: Owen Da Gama demands a lot. There’s more fighting in the team. They are willing to die in the field of play. The attitude has changed. Everyone is giving 120% because everyone want to play. The competition is high and it is competitive since coach, Owen came in to the mix and thankfully the results are coming our way.

TSG: We are playing Chippa United on Saturday. We can we expect?

MH: It is going to be a difficult one on Saturday against Chippa. They are on a nice winning streaky. They are starting to get results. If we win our individual battles, we will pull through and get the results. They recently beaten us at home and I don’t think we should lose twice against the same opponents.

TSG: What has worked for Galaxy away from home?

MH: We should take one game at the time. It is important to win our home games but luckily we are winning away right now. We try and get three points in each and every game. That’s the mentality now. Every game is a cup final for us.
