Enyimba will bounce back – Awazie

Ekene Awazie expresses confidence that Enyimba will recover from their poor performance in the Nigeria Premier Football League this season.

Enyimba forward Ekene Awazie has voiced optimism about the team's potential to bounce back from a challenging season in the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL). Currently, Enyimba sits in 15th place with 33 points, only marginally safe from relegation. With a record of eight wins, nine draws, and eleven losses from 28 matches, the team's performance has not met expectations, especially for a club with such a storied history as two-time African champions.

Awazie reflected on the team's recent performance, noting that they have only managed to secure a single victory in their last nine NPFL games, which is concerning for both the players and the fans. The recent draw against NPFL newcomers Kun Khalifat highlighted their ongoing struggles, leaving fans eager for improvement. Awazie acknowledged the disappointment following the match but emphasized the importance of hard work and resilience, core values that the club embodies.

With the season nearing its conclusion, the pressure mounts for Enyimba to gather points quickly to avoid the risk of relegation, a situation uncharacteristic for a club of their stature. Awazie's unwavering faith in the team's ability to overcome these issues represents a hopeful sentiment that the players and coaching staff will need to rally around as they strive to return to form before it is too late.
