Alimi says it will be a tough contest in the Federation Cup Round of 32

Posted : 10 May 2023
Shooting Stars Sports Club (3SC) of Ibadan forward Sikiru Alimi admits the team's Federation Cup foe, the Warri Wolves, would be a hard nut to crack but believes the Oluyole Warriors will scale through.

The two sides will lock horns on Wednesday in a Round of 32 fixture at the Dan Anyiam Stadium in Owerri.

Speaking ahead of the encounter, the former Sunshine Stars' striker, who once featured for the Warri-based side, said his side would henceforth guard against complacency in the encounter.

"The FA Cup is a different ball game entirely from the league; we will go all out for it with everything we have."

"Warri Wolves is a club with history; I once played for the team." They won't be pushovers.

"So we will go all out for it with utmost seriousness," added the 3SC striker.

Meanwhile, the Ibadan soccer lords, who arrived in the Imo State capital on Monday afternoon, had a light workout at the Dan Anyiam Stadium pitch, with coach Gbenga Ogunbote tutoring the lads into good shape for the match.

To get to this stage, Shooting Stars defeated Adamimogo FC of Akure 4-3 in the Round of 64, played in Lagos, while Warri Wolves hammered Beyond the Limits of Ikenne 4-0 to set up a clash with the Oluyole Warriors.
