Speaking moments after the Peoples Elephants were held to a scoreless draw by Bayelsa United at the Samson Siasia Stadium in Yenagoa on Saturday in a tune up game, the coach said he was happy with the build-up and the com­mitment of the players, how­ever, pointing out that there were some grey areas that would be touched before the match against the Senegalese.

“We are getting ready for them but I know we still have some areas to touch on the team before we travel for the match (against Diambers).

“The players are responding and their level of commit­ment is ok. I am sure we are going to make the fans and all Nigerians proud in the game and come back home to finish it,” he said.

Enyimba are two times winners of the CAF Cham­pions League and, in the last two seasons, have made it to the group stage of the CAF Confederation Cup. (Daily Independent)
