Enyimba gears up for Bakili Bullets

Enyimba football club of Aba is gearing up
for this weekend’s Champions League against Bakili Bullets of Malawi.
Officials of the club want the players to
give their best so that they can maintain the top form which they started by
the comprehensive 3-0 victory over Africa Sports two weeks ago.
They have implored the boys and technical
crew not to underrate the boys from Malawi because it might prove very costly.
But I want to assure that everything is been done to boost the morale of the
boys.
“ There is no time to begin to lose
concentration after the huge advantage of the 3-0 victory over Africa Sports in
Abidjan. Once we can keep our heads high and look to the remaining matches,
then we can be sure that we are going to play in the semi finals of the
competition.
“The players know what is at stake
and they have trained very well for the match. And our players who travelled to
South Africa, Onyekachi Okonkwo and Obinna Nwaneri are back with us for the
game.
“Except for Uga Opara who is out for
the tie because of the yellow card
he collected from the last game, other players are intact.
The 5-0 thrashing of Insurance last Sunday
has also given the boys some motivation to score a lot of goals against Bakili
Bullets,”Tonnex Chukwu said.
