Expectations will be very high for the only Nigerian club left on the continent this season when Warri Wolves FC take on MK Etanchéité from DR Congo at the Warri Township Stadium on Saturday in a CAF Confederation Cup match.
Warri Wolves goal keeper Eriose Tega, who helped non-league side Fame FC to a good run in the 2012 Federation Cup, said after the team's morning training session on
Friday and he stated that Warri Wolves are prepared and focused on tomorrow's match.
"It's a step after the other, our focus is mainly on this match. We thank God for the journey so far and we hope to get the desired result on Saturday. Each match gives us a unique experience, the last match against Ethiopian Club Dedebit wasn't an easy one but we were able to over come that challenge even with the massive home support from the host fans in Ethiopia," Tega said.
Tega continued:" As you can see, the Delta State Governor, Dr Emmanuel Uduaghan just spoke to the team and that's a big morale booster to us. We shall try our best to get the job done here and hope to finish up in the second leg," Tega stated
Warri Wolves have never played in the group stage of any CAF Club competition before but the Seasiders will have to cross two more stages to qualify for the group stage. They'll host MK Etanchéité in a CAF Confederation Cup second round, first leg match on Saturday at Warri Township Stadium.
