Those points were very important to us, and now, we can confidently look forward to our next match in Brazzaville. “We always knew Djoliba to be a strong team, considering that they eliminated MFM FC. We prepared very hard and I thank God that we got the goals that mattered,” said Paul Aigbogun, head coach of Enyimba. “Both teams were a bit nervous in the first half but we weighed up the opposition by the time we came into the second half; we changed the way we played and it worked”.
