Buoyed by major scalps like their victory over Enyimba, the Savannah Tigers are fully focused on maintaining their momentum and proving that their flawless run is no fluke as they head into the clash against Kano Pillars.
“It is too early to judge any team at the moment, but the most important thing is that our set objective is to make a very good impression in the league. And if we are to win the league title, so be it. But we want to compete well and be at the top and want to make an impression on Nigerian football and stakeholders.
“Concerning the game against Enyimba, it was a game that everybody had been waiting for, and I am happy that we prepared well, and the players responded very well. Don’t forget that Enyimba is a team I coached last before joining Doma United. So Enyimba is my former team, and I know the club very well.

“I made the boys know that they can make a name through Enyimba because they are a big club in Africa and Nigeria as well. I told the players that if they are able to withstand the tenacity and pressure of Enyimba, then it becomes big news. I am delighted that the players came to the party and got the three points against Enyimba.
“There is one thing they call graduation in performance, and we approach games one step at a time. According to the game plans, every team determines the response of the players. Yes, Kano Pillars is a household name and has a big pedigree in Nigerian football, but one thing we must understand is that it’s a game of 90 minutes and 11 players. I am confident Doma United will get a positive result against Kano Pillars. We just want to remain humble and focus.”
