Horoya FC
Guinean Champions Horoya FC have stepped up their final preparation for their CAF Confederation Cup quarter final first leg with Enyimba of Aba.
Enyimba international Aba midfielder Austin Oladapo has stated that the team is in top shape ahead of their CAF Confederation Cup game with Horoya FC of Guinea.
Horoya FC striker, Simeon Bolaji Sakin says he hopes his team can draw Nigeria representative Lobi Stars and giants, Al Ahly in Friday’s CAF Champions League group stage draw.
Sakin scored twice in the second leg as Horoya FC of Guinea overturned a 3-0 first leg defeat to secure a 6-5 victory on aggregate over Libya‘s Al Nasr and booked their place in the group stage of the African biggest football club competition.
Ahead of the Friday draw, Sakin said he hopes to face Al Ahly and Lobi Stars of Makurdi.
“I am anxiously waiting for the Friday draw and I will like us to be paired against Al Ahly and Lobi Stars and another team,”
“I want Al Ahly again because they were the one that stopped us from proceeding to the semi-final after they beat us in the quarter final stage. It was a painful loss and we will like to meet them again to take our revenge.
“I am hoping that we play against Lobi Stars too because it will enable me to visit home again and to also take my teammates to my house. Lobi Stars beat their opponent from Kenya, Gor Mahia and they must be a good side too.”
Sakin joined Horoya FC two seasons ago but before then he played for Abia Warriors and Rivers United in the Nigeria professional football league.
