Head coach of Enyimba, Kadiri Ikhana, is still confident his team will win the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) title.
The People’s Elephant were beaten 2-1 by Heartland in a Match Day 32 clash in Owerri on Sunday.
Ikhana admitted that the loss has increased the pressure in their camp, but insists they can turn it around and win their seventh title.
“I will say confidently that the league title belongs to Enyimba despite the shocking 1-2 defeat at Heartland.
“What we need to counter the loss at Heartland is to win our remaining home matches while we strive to pick up at least one or two wins on the road.
“Of course, we never bargained for the type of result we got at Heartland, it’s certain to push up the pressure but I know we will overcome at the end of the day,” the former Nasarawa United coach told supersport.com.
Enyimba are still top of the league, three points ahead of Warri Wolves in second place. .
