Shooting Stars Sports Club (3SC) forward Ifegwu Ojukwu said three points and not the goal margin are crucial in the top-flight clash against former champions Kano Pillars.
The Oluyole Warriors are hosts of the Pyramid City side in Sunday’s top-flight matchday 33 clash at the Lekan Salami Stadium in Ibadan.
The Ibadan warlords were stunned 0-6 by the Kano landlords in the first fixture clash at the Sani Abacha Stadium in Kano.
“We are ready to challenge Kano Pillars for the maximum points on Sunday in Ibadan.
“We dropped points in two straight matches against El Kanemi Warriors and Heartland in Owerri.
“We cannot afford to lose further points in the remaining matches if we are to avoid going down on relegation.
“I believe God will grant us our heart's desire to claim the three points at stake in the encounter.
“Pillars have humbled us with the massive 6-0 win in the first fixture clash in Kano.
“We don't care about the goal margin, we just want to win,” the former Ikorodu United marksman told supersport.com.
The Ibadan landlords are 13th on the top-flight log on 41 points, 12 adrift league leaders Wikki Tourists.
