Ozebagbe made the remarks following Ikorodu City’s impressive 3-1 victory over Wikki Tourists FC, a result that further boosted the club’s ambitions heading into the decisive stage of the season.
Reflecting on the performance, the tactician praised his players for their determination, intensity, and quality throughout the encounter.
“Outstanding performance from the boys — character, intensity, and quality from start to finish,” Ozebagbe said.
The coach also expressed pride after leading the club past the 100-goal mark in the NPFL, describing the feat as a testament to the hard work and commitment within the team.
“Equally proud to lead this team to 100+ NPFL goals, a milestone that means a lot and reflects the hard work behind the scenes,” he added.
Despite the recent success, Ozebagbe insisted that the team remains fully focused ahead of their final two league fixtures against Katsina United FC and defending champions Rangers International F.C.
“Two more finals before the curtain closes on the season. The mission remains the same — keep the belief alive,” he stated.
Ikorodu City remain firmly in contention for both the NPFL title and a possible CAF continental qualification spot as the season approaches its climax.
The final home fixture against Rangers at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena is expected to play a decisive role in determining the club’s fate at the end of the campaign.
After narrowly missing out on continental football in their maiden top-flight season, Ikorodu City now have another opportunity to secure a historic qualification with favourable results in their remaining matches.
