Just two days after winning their CAF Champions League opponents in the first leg of the preliminary round of the competition, Enugu Rangers have continued their preseason preparations in style, thrashing Blessed Stars FA 7-0 in a friendly match.
The Nigerian Premier Football League (NPFL) side showed no mercy to the Akwa Ibom-based team, raining down goals in a dominant display at the Uyo Township Stadium on Tuesday morning, Footballrover reports.
The Flying Antelopes were completely ruthless from the outset, overwhelming their opponents with a relentless attacking display.
Rangers’ coach, Fidelis Ilechukwu, would be delighted with the team’s performance, as they demonstrated a high level of intensity and precision throughout the match.
The emphatic victory will undoubtedly boost Rangers’ confidence as they continue to build momentum heading into the second leg of their CAF Champions League group stage qualifier.
Recall that the Coal City side edged out their opponents from Comoros by a narrow margin in Uyo over the weekend and will be looking to wrap up things when both sides meet again this weekend.
Coach Fidelis Ilechukwu, who feels under pressure over the 1-0 win after missing numerous scoring chances last weekend, will be hoping to make amends this time around when they play host to US Zilimadjou once again at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium.
