The head coach of Sunshine Stars Edith Agoye has expressed his happiness over the outcome of their game against Doma United and has quickly shifted his focus on their next match against Rivers United, BSNSports.com.ng report.

The Akure Gunners had to rely on a late strike to secure a valuable away draw against the newly promoted side Doma United.

While speaking on the game, the former Shooting Stars coach explained why it was difficult for them to break down the host.

"We are happy for the game yesterday, not only because we were able to pick a point away from home, but because of the attitude of the boys; they gave everything they had and compensated for the fact that it took us a long journey to come to Gombe, we didn't want to go back empty-handed.

"We change the cause of the game with the substitutions. It was the first game of the season and as we all know it's a team in progress; game by game we will discover ourselves. We saw some positives and areas to improve on in the game and going forward we will make the necessary improvements.

"It's not enough for us to be confident but we have to be able to do the job that is necessary for us to win against Rivers United. They will not be an easy team to play being the defending champions but Sunshine Stars is a strong team and we know our strength. The boys are ready to go and we want to compliment the away draw with a home win", he told the club media.
