Okala forecloses further upsets in Coca-Cola FA Cup By Emeka Nwani Senior Correspondent, Lagos   Former International, Emmanuel Okala has predicted that no small team will win this year’s Coca-Cola FA Cup. Okala said that he has seen the level of commitment of the big clubs in the competition and noted that one of them will win the Cup. “No matter the upsets we have recorded in this year’s competition, I have not seen any small team from the professional league that can win the Coca-Cola FA Cup. “ I am  sure that any of the big teams will win the Cup. This is so because they have learnt their lessons. “ They have also realised that they have a lot to lose if they allow the smaller teams to beat them. It will be a disservice to  the experience they have garned from playing in the big league. “ And they also know that they have better credentials to represent Nigeria in the Confederation Cup. “ Mark my words, upsets can come in the preliminaries and the league stages, but when it comes to winning the Cup, the big teams will have the final say. “ I want the big teams to win because it will give us more respect in the eyes of the football authorities in Africa.       Copyright� 2002.
