NPFL: OGUNBOTE RUES SHOOTING STARS’ DEFEAT TO ENYIMBA
Chief tactician of Shooting Stars Sports Club (3SC) of Ibadan, Gbenga Ogunbote believes his side deserved at least a point from the Matchday 20 tie against Enyimba FC of Aba.
In his post match reaction after the Oluyole Warriors fell 0-1 to the People’s Elephants at the Enyimba International Stadium, Aba, the former Sunshine Stars FC handler blamed the loss on carelessness on the part of the team.
“The game has been won and lost, we will take the positives. Be it as it may, sometimes, you give it your all but you don’t get the desired result, at worse, we deserve a point from this game.
“We were careless with the goal we conceded today, it’s a situation we could have avoided.
“Sometimes, it happens like that in the game. We will go back home, pick up the pieces and let’s see what happens”, stated the former Rangers International gaffer.
On what to expect from his team in the second stanza, the Oracle, as the tactician is fondly called, expressed optimism that his team will get it right
“This is the first game, we still have about eighteen games in the second stanza, all we need to do is to see what we needed to do that we didn’t do right in this game, and once we get that done, I’m sure we will get it right”, said the ex Remo Stars and Enyimba sweat merchant.
