Shooting Stars goalie, Detan Ogundare says his team has all it takes to win the Ogunjobi Gold Cup.
The Oluyole Warriors host their Southwest derby rivals Remo Stars in the climax of the 9th edition of the prestigious pre-season tournament at the Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne.
Detan, a former Flying Eagles shot stopper said after his saves in the penalty shoot-out against MFM FC propelled Shooting Stars to their first Ogunjobi Gold Cup final.
“‘It’s another final game for us, and a tough one as both teams are rivals and want to win the Ogunjobi Gold Cup for pride and for fans.
“For any team can win but 3SC has the edge going into Saturday’s final. Recall Remo Stars forced us to a draw in the NNL Super 8 Promotion play-off in Enugu and we did beat them recently via penalties in one of the pre-season games. This time around, they can’t escape it will be Shooting Stars at the end of 90 minutes.”
His thoughts after he replaced his goalkeeping partner Charles Tembe on the dot of 90 minutes after scores stood at 0-0.
“Not much of a feeling as I knew it was my turn to make an impact in the game and I had the confidence that my team would steal the evening.
“I was so delighted that my coaches believed in me after they introduced me into the game against MFM FC for the penalty shoot-out.
“They know it’s one of my specialty and glad I didn’t disappoint after I stopped two of MFM spot kicks.”
