Remo Stars Coach Abdallah Declares Bayelsa United Showdown A ‘Must-Win’

As the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) hurtles toward its dramatic conclusion, Remo Stars technical adviser Usman Abdallah has thrown down the gauntlet ahead of his side’s make-or-break Matchday 36 encounter against Bayelsa United, insisting the fixture will ultimately decide whether the Sky Blue Stars sink or swim in Nigeria’s top flight.

With only two matches remaining in the season, Remo Stars find themselves perched perilously in 18th position on the league table – deep inside the relegation zone.

The Ikenne-based outfit know that nothing short of a victory will keep their dwindling survival hopes realistically alive.

Speaking to the club’s official media channels, Abdallah struck a tone of focused determination rather than panic, revealing that his squad has undergone intensive preparation for the high-stakes clash.

“The team is well prepared and fully motivated,” Abdallah stated. “The technical crew is eager to see the team succeed. This is a defining match that will determine our fate in the league.”

Despite the enormous pressure surrounding the fixture, the experienced tactician moved to calm any nerves within his camp, insisting his players will not be overwhelmed by the occasion.

“We are not under any pressure; we will approach it like every other game, with the sole aim of securing all three points,” he added.

Remo Stars will host Bayelsa United at their home ground in Ikenne, hoping that home advantage – combined with the passionate backing of their supporters – can provide the spark needed to escape the relegation mire.
