Sunshine Stars winger, Prince Aggreh, has refused to accept that his club’s chance of winning a first Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) title has been passed up.
Aggreh explained to supersport.com that despite their 2-3 loss to Nasarawa United at home on Sunday, he believes that Sunshine Stars can still claw their way back into contention as the nine games offer them that chance.
The former Heartland man acknowledged that their title aspiration have taken a big hit “but it is not yet over.”
“It was a very painful loss,” began Aggreh. “We didn’t go out there to lose and especially at home. Yes it will be difficult now that we have lost at home but it (our title ambition) is not yet over. The season is not yet over. There are nine more games to go, and anything is still possible.”
The Nigerian international now knows that Sunshine Stars will have to bring out every of their best to the plate when they face Kwara United in the coming weekend.
Aggreh is rallying his teammates to put their home loss to Nasarawa United behind them and focus on the job at Kwara United.
“We are up for another tough game. The truth is that we have to put the loss on Sunday behind and face the game against Kwara United with our very best. Like I said it will be very tough but if we do our best I am sure we can win because we have the quality in this team,” he told supersport.com.
The former Bendel Insurance winger has scored nine goals this season in the Nigerian top flight but that has seen Sunshine Stars in fourth place with 47 points, eight behind leaders, Enyimba.
