Mazembe can’t stop us – Emetole

Heartland FC coach, Kelechi Emetole, says his side is primed for victory in this weekend return leg final of the Orange CAF Champions League in the Congolese city of Lubumbashi.

Emetole who guided the Owerri-based club to 2-1 victory in the first leg last Sunday declared that opponents TP Mazembe will be under much pressure to stop them from winning the trophy.

The former international, popularly called ‘Caterpillar’, during his hey days said the slim margin victory during the first leg was influenced by the heavy downpour before the match held at the Imo State capital.

“The heavy down pour slowed us down but we were still able to nick the win. In the return leg, we hope it does not rain and more importantly the home team will be under pressure and we’ll have the opportunity to easily score the goals we need to win the cup.”

With Mazembe are basking in confident with the away goal, Emetole, who guided two-time African champions, Enyimba, to their first ever Nigerian Premier League title in 2002, insist his charges are capable of accomplishing the mission impossible at the Municipal Stadium in Lubumbashi.

To him, this would rather bring out the best of his side, making their debut on the continental scene and seeking to wrestle the title at the expense of Mazembe, winners in 1967 and 1968.


“We have been in the situation before and wriggle out. I agree that we have our backs to the wall but that is when you see the best of Heartland and that we’ll surely show in Congo,” assured Emetole considered one of the most respected coaches in Nigeria and assistant to Tunde Disu when the Eaglets lost to Portugal in the final FIFA U-20 World Cup in 1989 in Saudi Arabia.

He has also had stints with top Nigerian Premier League sides Bendel Insurance and El-Kanemi Warriors.

The ‘Naze Millionaires’ formerly called Iwuanyanwu Nationale’s closest to lifting a continental honour was in 1988 when they lost to Algerian side, Entente Setif 4-1 on aggregate in the defunct African Cup of Champions Clubs, now christened CAF Champions League.

The winner of the Orange CAF Champions League will pocket $1.5million and an opportunity to represent Africa at the FIFA World Club Championship, slated for the United Arab Emirates in December. [img][/img]
