The Nigerian midfielder reveals the impact of the previous match with what enthusiasm the team is preparing for the 2nd leg․

ABOUT THE MATCH

“We played with a really strong team that was a good opponent. I think we started off tensely, but already in the second half we looked better, and in some respects even surpassed the opponent. I hope that in the 2nd leg match we will look better, I am sure of that, because I trust the guys and the coaching staff 100%. I have already watched the video of the game, I can already see how motivated the players and coaches are preparing for the 2nd leg match. We can."

ABOUT ATMOSPHERE IN THE TEAM

“Even after the game, there was no sad mood in the locker room, because everyone understood that there will be a 2nd leg match, during which everything could be corrected. We all inspired and supported each other. We believe in our strength. We look forward to the 2nd leg match. Now there is still time, we are training hard. The upcoming match is very important for us, we must please the fans."

ABOUT THE OPPORTUNITIES

“We really have the opportunity. In the previous match we played without fans, in this sense NK Maribor had an advantage, but now the match will be on our field, in the presence of our fans. Now we will have the advantage. Therefore, we must act purposefully, make great efforts and achieve our goal. Everything is really in our hands."
