The Department of Educational Foundation and Counseling coach, Opeyemi Gbolahan, has made it known that winning the Student Union Government (SUG) freshers' cup will be a curse breaker and prove doubters wrong.
Coach Gbolahan, at the post-match interview after his team defeated Environmental Studies in a penalty shootout with six goals to five, stated that he is confident that they will win the competition no matter who they square up with.
"Winning this competition will be the first of its kind in the history of my department because we have never won the SUG cup before, it will be a curse breaker if we triumph because people believe EFC cannot do it, we are certainly winning the competition no matter who we are fixed with, and I know this will be a great achievement to the department,” he said.
Furthermore, he also spoke about how people have been looking down on his team and attributed certain factors that have kept them moving.
"I know a lot of people are looking down on us that we can't go this far in the tournament, because they believe we are the smallest in the whole school, especially in the faculty of Education, but God has been our side, teamwork, coordination, and motivation from our leaders and fans keeps us moving," he added.
Here's what match results in the quarter-final stage look like:
EMBS 1–0 Geology
ASSED 2–0 Accounting
Environmental 5–6 EFC (penalty shootout)
Math 1–0 MLS.
