Enyimba coach Usman Abd’Allah has urged his team to stay focused and rise up to the challenge that awaits them at the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) playoffs.
The team qualified for the Super Six on the final day of the regular season despite slipping to a 1-2 loss against Katsina United on Sunday.
Abd’Allah said: “We have scaled through the first stage of this competition by getting to the Super Six and now we are in the final stage of the season.
“This is the stage where we have to achieve those two goals we set at the beginning of the season, that’s getting back into the continent and hopefully getting a trophy.”
He added: “We will go back and start preparing more because we need to have a very good concentration to move on. We have to go back and assemble the team very well, get more focused and train, and then give everything and sacrifice.”
Abd’Allah also admits the enormity of the task ahead but called on everyone to be ready.
“This sacrifice has to come from both sides – from the club, from the management, from the players, from the supporters and also from the coaches so that we can achieve this.
“We are at the final stage and we have to get prepared very well and avoid any mistake. This is a place where we can’t afford any mistakes to achieve these goals.”
