Enugu Rangers midfielder Michael Oforkansi has issued a warning ahead of their match against Ikorodu City FC today in Lagos, cautioning that the newly promoted side will not be a pushover.
Ikorodu City, who earned promotion from the NNL to the NPFL last season, have yet to secure a win since the start of the current campaign.
They suffered a 3-0 defeat to Kano Pillars and drew 0-0 against Kwara United, and will be determined to claim their first victory in the league.
Meanwhile rangers coming from a loss in the Caf champions league and with no win this season yet, will be on
Oforkansi emphasized that even so-called smaller clubs have goals they are striving to achieve, and Enugu Rangers must remain focused on their own targets.
He also acknowledged that while Ikorodu City will have home advantage at Onikan Stadium with their fans behind them, football goes beyond that.
Oforkansi assured that Rangers are ready to give their best to secure the win.
