Coach Gbenga Ogunbote says he is impressed with Sunshine Stars, perfor-mance against Dakkada FC in Uyo.
Sunshine Stars recorded their first win on the road by beating their hosts 2-1 at the Nest of champions on Sunday.
Red-hot Sadeeq Yusuf bagged a brace to cap Sunshine Stars, five-star performance in the matchday six encounter.
Sunshine Stars would have won the match by at least four goals, but Fuad Ekelojuoti wasted two good opportunities in the closing stages; as he forced Olawale Oremade into a good save in the 76th minute before firing high from Waheed Adebayo’s square pass in the 84th minute.
Speaking at the post match briefing, Ogunbote remained humble as he maintained that his boys are still work in progress.
“The commitment level was high, I sounded it to the (the players) that if you want to make impact in the league, you have to win on the road.
“We are still a team in the making and we need to invigorate the team with some new players as soon as we can. On Sadeeq? We hope to have more of him but we win as a team,” he said.
Sunshine Stars will host Rangers in their next match in Akure on Sunday.
