Ahead of their Matchday 24 clash in the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL), Remo Stars’ coach, Daniel Ogunmodede, has expressed confidence in his team’s readiness to take on defending champions Rangers International.
The hitherto Nnamdi Azikwe Stadium fortress has been demystified in the ongoing season following the string of losses by Rangers on the same ground where they secured a 100% record last season leading to their being crowned Nigeria’s champions.
The current league leaders will take their unbeaten run which has spanned 74 days since losing 2-1 to Niger Tornadoes on December 1 last year. By Sunday, it will be 77 days since the strong Ikenne side last lost a match.
Ogunmodede has reiterated his team’s determination to maintain the momentum.
“No game is too easy or too difficult for us. It all depends on what unfolds during the match,” Ogunmodede said in an interview with Remo Stars media.
“Some games you expect to be tough turn out to be easier, and others that you think will be straightforward become challenging. It’s the moments in the game that often decide the outcome. It doesn’t matter who we face – what matters is how we handle the game in those critical moments.”
“We will prepare as a team and hope to get it right when the time comes,” he added.
Remo Stars currently lead the table with 48 points, while Rangers are in 5th place with 35 points.
