Fallout of CAF Champions League; We saw 'hell' in Togo--Baraje

HEAD Coach of Enyimba, Zachary Baraje has commended his wards for overcoming the hostility faced before they bundled Anges de Notse of Togo out of the 2014 CAF Champions League.
The People's Elephant after a 3-1 lead in Aba suffered a 1-2 defeat at the Omnisport Stadium, Lome last Sunday to qualify for the next stage of the competition on 4-3 aggregate.
“From the minute we arrived in Lome, all of us went through a lot of mental and physical torture from our hosts. They employed all kinds of antics to prevent us from winning but in the end our hard work and experience helped to sail through,” the former Gombe United coach said.
He stated that the journey to reclaim the African title has just begun as Enyimba are drawn with AS Real Bamako of Mali in the second round of the competition.
“Yes We are happy that we have eliminated Anges but we can’ celebrate as such because the journey has just started. We will continue to work hard until we achieve our set target,” the former Shooting Stars Sports Club (3SC) gaffer remarked.
The two-time African champions' lone strike in Lome came through new signing from ABS of Ilorin, Abdulrahman Bashir.
