NIGER Tornadoes' full back, Hussaini Isah has expressed
optimism of his side's good outing against Remo Stars in their Matchday 7
encounter of the Nigeria Professional Football League, NPFL on Wednesday in
Sagamu.
The Minna-based side had to wait till 72nd minute before
they could salvage a point, courtesy of Ifeanyi Okoye's spot kick in their last
weekend's home draw with Katsina United after their guests had converted a 27th
minutes penalty in Lokoja.
The boys of Coach Abubakar Bala will be taking on newly
promoted Remo Stars in another tricky encounter at Sagamu Stadium and Isah who
has been impressive this season for Tornadoes noted that they can replicate the
same result or getting the maximum points in Sagamu.
"It's unfortunate we couldn't win the last game at
home (against Katsina United) despite our dominance, we've dropped a very
precious points, but the league it's a marathon, we have a chance to quickly
readjust with the game against Remo Stars tomorrow and we hope for a better
result.
"If Katsina United can come and pick a point in our
home without any shot on target, we can also go somewhere and pick a point or
the maximum three points, we are ready to give everything in the game and
redeem ourselves," Isah said.
Asked about his target with Tornadoes this season, Isah
said it's still very early to forecast but expressed confidence that the
"Ikon Allah" Boys would spring surprises.
"I don't want to put unnecessary pressure on myself
but I'm positive it's going to be a good season for me and Tornadoes, this is
almost a new team to what we had last season, we are young side with
intelligent and dedicated players, we are still in the building process for
now, our performances with results will answer that question well enough as the
season grows more," he said.
