RANGERS VS KANO PILLARS: Aguda wants to be match hero

ENUGU Rangers midfielder, Godwin Aguda is hoping to become the match winner when they take on Kano Pillars in the Nigeria Professional Football League match day 21 at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium in Enugu on Wednesday.

The former Christ Ambassador star who wasted two glorious opportunities during the reverse fixture at the Sani Abacha Stadium in Kano as the former champions came from a goal down to secure a vital 2-1 victory, said he is desperate to make up for the misses in today’s encounter.


“I believe that I am the one that actually lost that game for my team. I had two great chances but could not convert them. Then afterwards they equalized and went ahead to defeat us. But I believe that is how God wanted it to be that day. The team, especially myself will try and to bring out my 100 percent to make sure I am the hero of the day. I believe I must have a goal in that match.”

Aguda said the Flying Antelopes 2-1 away victory over Heartland FC at the Dan Anyiam Stadium in their last match came at the right time.

“After the victory we were very happy because it is this same Heartland team that drew us in the first round. The three points came at the right time and it was an important one for us. At least it bettered our position on the table. 

"This week we are coming back home to take on Kano Pillars. So that victory really gave us the needed boost ahead of Wednesday game.

Godwin Aguda joined the Flying Antelopes from non-league club, Christ Ambassador who won the Lagos FA Cup in 2015, he also emerge as the Most Valuable Player of the tournament.
