Enyimba FC suffered a painful defeat; even though it was a draw, last
season to Dolphins in Port Harcourt, the points lost in the game
affected their title aspirations in the League.But the Aba giants got their pound of flesh with a Federation Cup final 1-0 win in Lagos over Stanley Eguma’s men. This Sunday, in Port Harcourt Kadiri Ikhana will return will blood in his eyes as will their host.
Meanwhile, Captain of Enyimba Chinedu Udoji is confident officiating will certainly not be a matter of concern but identified the change in guard over the last season as another key factor.
” This is not a grudge match to me, they denied us the chance of winning the League forcing s to a draw, we could have gone ahead to pick the title but we redeemed ourselves with the Federation Cup win over them. So I guess we’re squared.”
” The level of officiating gives you confidence that you can get a result a way from home if you play well. The level of the league has improved from 10% to 80%, I really appreciate the Referees and how much they’ve improved.”
Both side have lost key players either to trading or out on National duties and Udoji told www.footballlive.ng that this still tilts the game in Enyimba’s favor.
” They changed their team and we did same, we both picked draws in our last games but I feel we stand a better chance of getting a result against then in Port Harcourt.
