Sunshine Stars Coach: It Is Not Over

Sunshine Stars coach, Gbenga Ogunbote, has declared that his side is still in the running for the CAF Champions League final ticket despite a 3-3 draw with Al Ahly in Saturday&rsquo;s semifinal first leg in Ijebu-Ode.<br /><br />Ogunbote told the Sporting Press that his squad can still turn around the game in Cairo in two weeks&rsquo; time.<br /><br />&ldquo;We have seen it, we have paid the price of our late preparation but I can say that now that we have played them and known a few things about them, we can still turn things around in the return leg<br />match,&rdquo; Ogunbote said.<br /><br />&ldquo;No doubt they are an experienced side having won the trophy six times and are regarded as Africa&rsquo;s team of the century, but if we can get this kind of performance in the second leg, nothing will stop us from upstaging them.&rdquo;<br /><br />The Sunshine Stars gaffer pleaded for patience as he plots the way to the Akure side&rsquo;s revival in the reverse game.<br /><br />&ldquo;You don&rsquo;t clap with one hand. We need to be patient. We have learnt a few lessons thereof and with adequate preparation we can still turn the result around.<br /><br />&ldquo;If they can come here and score three why can&rsquo;t we do the same there or even more. We are determined and we can do it. We need to be positive about it and have confidence&nbsp; in&nbsp; ourselves.&rdquo;
