Debut Watch
Two players made their debuts in NW London's 3-2 victory over AS London.
Abbas Osman, a 22-year-old midfielder who joined the club in February, impressed in his first appearance. A tall, dynamic player capable of contributing both offensively and defensively, he displayed confidence in midfield. He nearly marked his debut with a goal, narrowly missing the target with a shot that flashed just wide of the post.
David Ardisson also made his first appearance, having previously been named on the bench earlier this season. The goalkeeper was tested in an action-packed encounter and delivered an assured performance. His crucial save at 2-2 proved vital in securing NW London's victory, ensuring the team could go on to claim all three points.
