The Enyimba International Football Club of Aba have charged Dolphin to beat the Ismaili FC in today's CAF Confederation Cup last group match in Port Harcourt.
Enyimba Sole Administrator, Chief Felix Anyansi-Agwu, said Dolphin should not be overawed by the credentials of the Egyptian champions.
The Enyimba boss said his team were able to demystify Ismaili during their 2003 Champions League final because his players took the game to the Egyptians.
'Don't underrate the Egyptians because of the ongoing Ramadan fast. You are the only remaining hope of Nigeria in continental football this year following the ouster of Enyimba in the Champions League and the failure of the Super Eagles to qualify for the World Cup," Anyansi-Agwu said.
Dolphin require a draw in today's game at the Liberation Stadium, Port Harcourt to qualify for the Confederation Cup final, where they would face the FAR of Morocco, while Ismaili will need an outright win over the Nigerians to book a final ticket.
