Kwara United coach Tunde Sanni has made it clear that his ‘Harmony Boys’ aren’t scared of Abakaliki FC, dubbed ‘giant-killers’, as they prepare for the President Federation Cup final.
This big match on June 28 will be Kwara United’s first-ever appearance in the Federation Cup final, and their coach believes they are ready for the challenge despite their opponent’s reputation, Footballrover reports.
Kwara United coach ready to face the “giant-killers”
Abakaliki FC earned their ‘giant-killers’ tag by knocking out four NPFL teams on their path to the FA Cup final — Katsina United, Nasarawa United, Enyimba, and Ikorodu City.
However, the Kwara United boss calmly stated his team is not fazed.
He emphasised that Kwara United also overcame strong NNL sides, proving their own strength and experience on their journey to the final.
“We’re not worried about them being called ‘giant-killers’. That doesn’t worry us at all. “We’re an experienced team,” he said as quoted by Completesports.
“We can only respect them for getting this far, but we can’t fret just because they defeated some NPFL teams,” he added.
The road to the FA Cup final
Coach Sanni, also a former player for Kwara United, is on the verge of making history, aiming to lead the team to their first domestic title.
He took over the Kwara United coaching job with a clear vision.
“We are working hard. We know it won’t be an easy match. But with hard work and God on our side, victory can come our way,” he concluded.
