Henry Makinwa in Sagamu |
The Sakari Boys will face the former topflight champions Enyimba of Aba in Ilorin on Sunday and Coach Henry Makinwa has urged his boys to avoid getting inundated by their opposition’s pedigree.
Coach Makinwa echoed against fear factor to influence their game against Enyimba on Sunday, after suffering a huge and disgraceful defeat at Remo Stars last week due to bad condition of playing surface, but rather my boys should get back to winning ways against the People’s Elephants they must avoid being overwhelmed by their pedigree.
“What you shouldn’t do is to play against Enyimba with fear,”They have the pedigree and the materials to hurt us, so we must be very careful. “It’s a challenge for us – we’re off the back of a disappointing defeat to Remo Stars but we can bounce back. “What we need to do is take all the good things from all our home performances into the game on Sunday.”
Adeshina Gata also said myself and the entire team hope to bounce back to winning ways after suffering a defeat by three unreplied goals for the second time this season in Sagamu last weekend. He confessed his side showing of a poor performance in their away loss at Remo Stars and urged his teammates to snap out of the disappointment to win against the People’s Elephants when they come visiting on Sunday.
“We must respond very well against Enyimba on Sunday because we (players) are not happy with the result in Shagamu. “Our fans so much believe in this team and we must not let them down, hence the need to make them happy on Sunday.
“We have the quality to do well in every game and we must show we can rub shoulders with the big boys. “Thank God there is now level playing ground to show what you have, I mean you can now win anywhere if you play well,” Gata said
