Chief Coach of Enyimba International of Aba, Fatai Osho has blamed his side four/one thrashing by the Egyptian Pyramids in last Sunday's CAF Confederation quarter final match, on tiredness of the players
Osho speaking after the two-times African Champions' humiliating defeat, said that the boys were tired after their trip to Egypt and found it very difficult to move their legs during the encounter
Top Striker, Victor Mbaoma gave the Nigerian side an early lead within a minute in the encounter but the Egyptian Premier League side responded before half the half time and later scored three more goals in the remaining half, to put the game beyond the People's Elephants
A brace from Ibrahim Abdel and a goal each from Ramadan Sobhi and Abdalla El Said narrowed Nigeria's Enyimba chances of qualifying for the semi-final of the second tier African clubs competition
Enyimba now face an uphill task of scoring three unreplied goals against the Egyptians in the second leg in Aba, to move to the next stage of the competition.
