Shooting Stars technical adviser Gbenga Ogunbote has warned his players to expect a tough challenge in the second stanza of the 2024-25 season of the Nigeria Premier Football League, NPFL.
Ogunbote gave the warning after the team’s resumption from the New Year break.
The veteran tactician said that his team will be battle-ready to have a positive outing in the second half of the season.
“I think we do not need anybody to tell us that it is going to be a very tough second round, even though the first round was equally challenging,” Ogunbote stated to the players after the team’s training on Monday.
“Our position in the first round will surely attract a lot of challenges, but we have been able to tell our players, and I am sure they are aware of that too.
“Everything we need to do is to be on our toes, to make sure that we give our best to ensure that we represent the team and the state very well.”
Media Talk Africa recalls that Shooting Stars finished in third position at the end of the first stanza with 33 points.
