Coach Yemi Dedicates Tornadoes Win To Enyimba Fans

..Lauds Finidi's Tactics In Team

Coach Yemi Olarenwaju has dedicated Enyimba's victory over Niger Tornadoes on Sunday to  Fans of the People's Elephants'.

Reacting to the press shortly after the encounter, Enyimba's Assistant Coach congratulated his boys for resilience and staying focused during the game till the goals started coming but expressed his disappoinment not having the fans at the stands during the NPFL match day 26 encounter decided at the Enyimba Int'l Stadium, Aba.

He lauded Coach Finidi George's tactical set up in Enyimba stressing that if the boys converted the chances created it would have been bigger than 3-1 score line adding that they are quickly switching attention to the next game against Kwara United in Ilorin next Sunday.

Second half Goals from Muyiwa Balogun, Elijah Akani and Uche Collins was enough to tame the stubborn Minna based side who were unbeaten in four games prior to the game in Aba.

The Aba giants who held Tornadoes in Kaduna to a goalless draw in the reverse fixture missed avalanche of changes and also had keeper Djeri Bassa in fine form keeping the away sides threats in check.

"Yeah, Congratulations to the team, for me personally I would like to dedicate this victory to our fans, it's strange seeing the stadium empty, am used to looking back and seeing the way the fans shearing us and me, for me is a bit disappointing we didn't have our fans but we keep getting the job done that's the most important thing and this victory is for our fans for the way they have been supporting us.

When asked about the consistency despite Coach Finidi's absence, he said;

"What coach Finidi has put in Enyimba is something that is very immense, the tactical set up and everything for the past two years has been very very good, if the boys have been taken the chances, i don't think we struggled in the first half, we were only a bit anxious to score, we creat once every three minutes, that shows in the first half it could have been 4-0 or even 5-0 but it is what is and we have to manage the 3-1 score line, the focus in the next game against Kwara United and we know the league is going to be tough, its a marathon, we play a game we put it behind us and focus on the next one. So all am thinking about now is the game against Kwara United.
