 By Rasaq Oboirien
LOBI Stars Head Coach, Evan Ogenyi has confessed that the lower division teams in the Gold Cup pre-season tournament are given his players a good fight.
The 2015 Federations Cup runners-up have played three games against Crown FC, Remo Stars and Imperial FC winning the first two team and sharing the spoils with the third to top Group B with 7points.
Speaking to NaijaSportsXtra after his team defeated Remo Stars by a lone goal, "Since this championship kicked-off we have played against teams with youthfulness combined with
experience.
"They have been very energetic with their play, in a way they have exposed the one or two weakness in our squad.
"In a way the teams have also helped the coaching crew as these grey areas we have so far taken notes of will be corrected before we go into our season opening away game to Shooting Stars of Ibadan next weekend."
