FC IfeanyiUbah captain and right back, Chibuzor Okonkwo has dubbed a-must-win match the oriental derby against Abia Warriors.
The Nnewi outfit will hosts the Warriors in Sunday’s Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) matchday 14 clash at the Gabros International Stadium in Nnewi.
Okonkwo said his side have pushed behind them the three nil bashing at Wikki Tourists in Bauchi to pay 100% concentrate on the clash against Abia Warriors.
“Our morale is quite high despite the 0-3 loss at Wikki Tourists at the weekend, we have noted the mistakes that caused us the defeat as well as corrections to avoid further occurrence and have erased the memory from our minds to focus 100% on the oriental derby against Abia Warriors.
“Abia Warriors are certainly going to come out strongly against us aimed at causing an upset but we have vowed to make it three points or nothing.
“The encounter is a must win game though it’s not going to come on a platter of goal given the quality of the bench and players in their fold.
“We are not really going to border our heads on the number of goals in the clash but key to us is the whole three points at stake.
“We need the whole points to chance challenging for the summit before the half time break,” said the former Enugu Rangers and Heartland strongman to supersport.com.
FC IfeanyiUbah are third on the 20-team Nigerian top flight on 22 from possible 39 in the 13-week old league.
