Towards the end of the season, there’s a lot of excitement, players feel more comfortable and have confidence in themselves to play, teams get better and the match (against Bidco) is a very important match for us. I expect to see something better because the understanding and the confidence we have at the moment is better than we had when we played them in the first leg,” he said in an interview with the club media. For Bidco, coach Anthony Akhulia says he anticipates a good game. “Wazito is a great team with a great coach and against them you expect a good match. We have prepared well for the game and we are going to give a good account of ourselves,” he told Mozzart Sport.
