Fidelis Ilechukwu has sent out a warning to his boys ahead of their meeting against Al-Akhdar Sports Club on Wednesday.
The Plateau United’s head coach stated that the tie is very much open,. despite his side taking a 4-1 lead to the second leg.
The Peace Boys are the guest of the Libyans for the second leg of the CAF Confederations Cup final playoff round scheduled for Wednesday at 10,000-capacity Omar Al-Mukhtar Stadium, Bayda-Benghazi.
Speaking ahead of the game, Ilechukwu said the boys mustn’t rest on their first leg, stating that the Libyans are very much in the game.
“We are fully prepared for this all-important match, knowing full well that coming out with a decent result will catapult the team to the group stage of the competition.
“Naturally a 4-1 victory is a good scoreline by any standard, but in a competition of this magnitude, where the away goal rule counts, we need maximum concentration to enable us to come out unscathed, said the former Heartland Head Coach.
The winner over the two legs will advance to the group stage of the competition which kicks off early next year.
