Isiaka Oladuntoye says Enyimba will target early goals when they square up against Williamaville in a CAF Confederation Cup showdown in Abidjan.

The People’s Elephants go into the clash after a slim 1-0 victory over the Ivorians in Port Harcourt.

Oladuntoye says the Group C leaders will come out with full force in the away fixture.

“Attack is the name of the game because a bad result isn’t on our horizon,” the central defender told TheCable.

“We plan to attack and get an early breakthrough, and by doing that we will put Williamsville under pressure.”

The former Kwara United defender says the pre-match hype and mind games will not get to him.

“I expect mind games before the game. There is always that sort of thing, but it never gets to me. I just laugh it off,” said Oladuntoye.

“Playing on the continent is a different ball game entirely is not like any other competition. And this one is more special because it is a Confederation Cup match.

“We are determined to perform well and defend the pride of our great nation.

“It is business as usual for us. These are the big matches all players want to be part of, and while there is a lot of expectation, we are up for the challenge.”
