The battle for the sole qualification ticket in the DBI Conference of the maiden edition of the 1XBET Cup competition comes up Wednesday, between Fakson FC and Bariga FC winners of groups A and B, at the Nitel Training ground, Oshodi.
Playing in the last group B matches, Bariga FC defeated Ifako FC 2-0, to top the group with 7 points, while the valiant G-Innovation thrashed Emiloju 4-1.
Fakson had on Tuesday picked the final ticket in group A with 7 points, after a hard earned 1-0 win over Cheche Stars.
Ahead of Wednesday final game, Barrister Ayo Julius, who is the Head Coach of Bariga FC, is optimistic of his team picking the Conference’s automatic ticket to the final 8 of the competition.
The flamboyant coach said, “We have gone too far, not to pick the sole ticket in this Conference. What you saw my boys played in our group matches, is what we call ‘Ramba-Samba’, which is a unique blend of Brazilian football and football made in Bariga.
“What you have seen so far, is just a tip of the iceberg. We’re going for the ultimate prize, which is the cup,” he boasted gleefully.
Meanwhile, a total of 32 goals have been scored from the 12 games played so far and with G-Innovation’s striker, Christian James leading the scorers chart with five goals.
