CHAN Eagles Captain and Super Eagles goalkeeper, Ikechukwu Ezenwa has downplayed the intensity of the injury he picked up on Wednesday at the Ilorin Township Stadium.
The former FC Ifeanyi Ubah shot-stopper was replaced in the 67th minute by Fatai Dauda when he could no longer continue in goal for the Aba Warriors.
In a chat with brila.net after the match, Ezenwa downplayed the fears attached to the injury by thanking God his team was able to pick up an away point.
“First, I thank God for the point in Ilorin and the most important thing is playing my second game for this great team that has so much ambition,” Ezenwa told Enyimba media.
“Coming out with a point has really boosted the morale of the team and I kept the team on the path of victory before the equaliser.
“It was just a minor injury and I have to thank God it was not a serious blow. Ezenwa is coming back (to training) in just about two or three days.
“I want to let my fans all over Nigeria know that it’s not a serious blow, it’s just a normal thing that would happen to a player and in a couple of days I will start training.”
