NIGERIA FOOTBALL LEAGUE(NFL): Sunshine Stars Set For Enyimba Cracker

Top Sunshine Stars official Mike Idoko has promised visiting Enyimba a cracking match when both teams clash in a rescheduled league match on Thursday.

Idoko said Enyimba have always been tough opponents for Sunshine, but he believes the two-time African champions will be tamed in Akure on Thursday.

"After camping for two months in Ijebu-Ode, on their way back to Akure to go and acclimatise and prepare for the opening match against Enyimba, our players were involved in an accident," Idoko narrated.


"Five of them were injured, but I am happy to tell you today that four of them have been discharged, it’s only Sunday Emmanuel who had a fracture.

"They put POP (Plaster of Paris) on him and they said in the next three months he will be okay.

"Having said that, nobody wants Enyimba at home. It’s going to be a cracker, but at the end, I know that we will run away with our three points.

"Our target is to get the continental slot."

In other rescheduled matches, Bayelsa United will lock horns with Sharks in a South-South clash, while Warri Wolves battle El-Kanemi Warriors of Maiduguri, all on Thursday.
