Enugu Rangers have been handed a big boost ahead of Sunday’s Oriental Derby clash against Enyimba after having the red card given to their star striker Seka Pascal overturned.
The Ivorian was given his marching orders when Rangers played against Bendel Insurance in a rescheduled Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) game last Thursday in Benin City.
However, after investigations, the League Management Company (LMC) ruled that the red card was unjustly awarded against the striker and he is available for selection once more.
Before the momentary setback, Seka has been enjoying a good run of form; scoring five goals in six league matches for Rangers.
Seka missed Rangers’ 3-0 drubbing against Rivers United in Port Harcourt on Thursday, but he would now be available for selection in the much-anticipated Oriental Derby against Enyimba in Aba on Sunday.
Enugu Rangers coach Gbenga Ogunbote believes Seka still has a lot to offer the Flying Antelopes as he welcomes him back for Sunday's derby.
