Heartland head coach, Ramson Madu has said he is happy as underdogs going into the Aiteo Cup clash at oriental neighbours and title holders, FC IfeanyiUbah (FCIU).
The Naze Millionaires are guests of the Anambra Warriors in Wednesday’s Aiteo Cup round of 16 clash at the FC IfeanyiUbah International Stadium in Nnewi.
Madu said the clash is a typical biblical clash between ‘David and Goliath’ and he hopes to emerge victorious at the end of 90 minutes football action.
“The Aiteo Cup round of 16 clash between hosts and tile holders, FC IfeanyiUbah and Heartland depicts the biblical battle between ‘David and Goliath’.“
The underdogs status suits us well as Nigeria National League (NNL) side versus Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) side.
“I like the matchup as it will afford me a golden opportunity to assess the new players in our midst as it concerns their suitability for inclusion in the top-flight squad if we gain promotion to the premier league.” © supersport.com
