Godfrey Oboabona Praying For Divine Intervention To Stop Emenike From Scoring
Published: April 26, 2014
Speaking ahead of the Super Lig clash between Fenerbahce and Rizespor, Godfrey Oboabona is relishing the prospect of facing Emmanuel Emenike, stating that he has the dossier of his fellow Nigeria international.
When both teams met last December, Godfrey Oboabona prevented Emenike from scoring even though Rizespor went on to lose the tie 2 - 1 in front of their fans at Yeni Rize �ehir Stadı.
“I am looking forward to the game with Fenerbahce because I will be facing Emmanuel Emenike and I know him very well.
“If I will stop Emenike from scoring? Only God knows the answer to that question. I can’t promise because I am not human,” Oboabona said.
This season, 23 - year - old Oboabona has made 16 starts for Rizespor whereas Emenike has made the startling lineup for the Yellow Canaries 20 times.
