Anaemena who is considered by many as Enyimba’s best player of the immediate past season, though predicted that the game against Rahimo FC today (Sunday) will be tough as the Aba landlords will be missing the backing of the twelfth man, was however optimistic of victory.

He said, “It is going to be a tough game for us because we (Enyimba) have not played behind closed doors before and this being the first time, I know it is going to be hectic and our fans cheering us up has been a big boost for us while playing. So without the fans, it is going to be kinda tough for us but I know by God’s grace we are going to push harder to make sure we qualify to the next round.”
