When I wasn't in the squad, I still had faith that my time will come. Now, it has happened. Our target this season is to win the championship. And with the present squad, I strongly believe we can win the title.<br /><br />''I cherish the medal from the Super Cup match. This is my fifth medal since I joined Omonia, and I have kept it where I have the remaining four medals - in my sitting room,'' Rasheed Alabi told<b> allnigeriasoccer.com</b>.<br /><br />On why the defense conceded 3 goals, Alabi said: '' Conceding three goals does not mean our defense is bad. Football is a team game, and everyone has a role to stop the opponents from scoring.''<br /><br />Omonia Nicosia are at home to Ayia Napa in their first game in the championship on September 1. <br /><br /><br />
