Aliyu Confident Gombe United Will Be Ready For Ogunjobi Gold Cup Final

Coach Zubiru Aliyu says his Gombe United side will be ready for the final match of the 8th edition of the Ogunjobi Gold Cup Pre-season Tournament. 

The Savannah Scorpions keeps a date with ABS FC whom they lost 2-1 to in the group stage.

The former Wikki Tourists gaffer told Gold Cup Media after his Scorpions stung Remo Stars 7-6 on spot kicks.

“We can win the but am after how my new and old players can play as a team with a view to getting the desired results.

“Remo Stars are a young side, mobile and off course a good team. We took time to study their past games in the tourney and noticed they attack from the flanks and their captain is a fantastic player. He is key to the team as he always starts the attack, so it was best to mark him out.

“That we did effectively and it slowed their pace. We should have scored, Remo Stars had the crossbar to thank on two occasions.

“The game was tough as predicted and opened my eyes on something new. I had not thought of practicing penalty kicks but with what played out against Remo Stars, I think I have good spot kick takers. So I won’t panic when the need arises.”

“Am not under pressure to win the Ogunjobi Gold Cup as all four teams that came this far were good as winning it. 

“For Gombe United; we will be ready for the game against ABS FC, that I can assure you.”
