Enyimba FC Gaffer, Finidi George has insisted that his league defending champions will continue to push till the end of the league after securing a hard earned away point.<\/p>\n
Finidi made this declaration shortly after his team secured a 1-1 draw against Sunshine Stars of Akure in their match day 31 NPFL encounter on Sunday.<\/p>\n
Chidiebere Nnachi’s second half equalizer (his second of the season) ensured that the Nine times league champions stayed within distance of league leaders, Enugu Rangers who lost 2-0 to Rivers United in Port Harcourt.<\/p>\n
Reacting after the very pulsating encounter, Coach Finidi said perhaps a draw was good for both teams.
\nHe said it was a difficult one and a 50-50 game.<\/p>\n
“Yeah it was a difficult one, let’s say the game was 50-50, so i think a draw is good enough for both teams. There wanted to win, we wanted to get something out of this game i think you didn’t see lots of chances but overall a draw is well needed by both teams.<\/p>\n
When asked if Enyimba has a chance to retain their league title in the final run in, Finidi said the Aba landlords will build on the away point gotten from the Owna Boys in Akure.<\/p>\n
“I think so, after having this one point here, i think we would build on it and see how we can win at home.<\/p>\n
“We’ll continue \u00a0to push till the end of the season, this Enyimba we don’t give up, so we’ll see what happens, others are playing also to see how they can win, I think this one point will go a long way”. the Super Eagles Assistant Coach concluded.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
