Enyimba: aiming to make history in Abuja
Posted by trae_z on December 7th, 2004
Nigeria’s own Enyimba of Aba, holders of CAF Champions League trophy want to win it for a second time, and back to back for that matter. The decisive date is Sunday December 12th. It’s the “D” day for the second leg final. And guess what? It’s holding in Abuja. The Aba stadium was banned due to the poor quality of the pitch. Trust Nigeria and maintenance now.
Truly Enyimba have been trying. Kudos to the boys, the fans, the club management and the Abia State government. They really impressed in the first leg, they played some pretty skillful football. At least much better than in some of their previous matches. And since they scored a goal away (they lost 2-1), a one nil home win would be enough to clinch the cup (the away goal rule in international tournaments). Peeps shouldn’t complain too much of hostility in Tunisia. It’s just the fanaticism and passion of the wonderful game of football. After all we should thank our stars for getting a goal…, which looked offside. Etoile deserved their win sha. No thanks to Obinna Nwaneri’s over busy body, which caused us a penalty for their first goal.
Anyway all that is gone. Fans should look forward to the final and go out and cheer Enyimba in full force. We shouldn’t disgrace Naija. Fans should fill the stadium and show the world we got love for our home teams too. If I’m in town by then u bet I’ll be there.
Enyimba celebrate after scoring a goal in the first leg of the CAF Champions League final 2004 away to Etoile Sahel of Tunisia.
