Enugu Rangers’ chief coach, John Obuh, believes his side’s 2 – 0 win over El Kanemi Warriors on Sunday could signal a change in the club’s fortunes.
Second-half goals from Emeka Eze and Osaguona Ighodaro ensured the Flying Antelopes nicked the three points at the expense of the visitors from Maiduguri.
Rangers recently cleared their debts to the players to put them in the best frame of mind for the second half of the league and Obuh, whose side struggled in the first half, believed that a new dawn had begun at the Oriental club.
“It is like the beginning of the league for us, especially playing in front of our home fans.
“That was why we found it a little difficult in the first half, but it was very important that we win and the win came the way we wanted. We are hoping we are able to defend the win by getting a victory away in our next game,” Obuh said after the match.
Rangers occupy 13th place on the Glo Premier League table with 27 points from 20 games. They are, however, only seven points adrift of league leaders, Kano Pillars.
