Enyimba defender, Ifeanyi Anaemena, says they’re determined to play the game of their lives in Ormdurman when they face Al Hilal of Sudan next week in their CAF Champions League Second Preliminary Round second leg match.
The People’s Elephant and two time winners of the competition fired blanks in the first leg last week in Aba, thus putting themselves in a tight corner going into the decisive battle in Ormdurman. The winner on aggregate will advance to the group stage of the competition.
Anaemena insists it is a case of no retreat, no surrender for the most successful club in Nigeria.
He reckons that Enyimba’s back is against the wall and the only acceptable option is a spirited fight back in Omdurman.
“It is difficult to believe that we ended the (first leg) match without a goal,” Anaemena told Completesports.com in a most pensive tone.
“Sometimes, it is like this, but I must say it is a game of two halves, one has been decided while the other is yet to be played.
“In Omdurman, its going to be no retreat, no surrender. Our backs are against the wall, so it’s nothing than a fight back from us.”
The centre-back added: “It is not yet over for us. We will get the job done in Omdurman. We have resolved to ensure that we make it to the group stage.”
