Eguma wants more strikers For Dolphins

Dolphins head coach, Stanley Eguma believes the solution to his problems right now would be to acquire more strikers.

Speaking after drawing 1-1 against Sharks at their Liberation Stadium ground, Eguma said he will have to delve into the transfer market for players who can score goals.

“We have to work harder, especially on the psyche of the players but you can see that we lost lots of chances to score in that game.

“We have actually not gotten over the loss of Emem Eduok and we are looking out to sign one or two players as soon as the window opens because of our blunt attack,” Eguma said.

Sharks FC coach, Ere Dokubo was bullish in his response to the scores saying 1-1 does not reflect the quality of the sides that played.

According to Dokubo, he had his chance to not just beat Dolphins, but bury them on their own turf.

“I don’t agree that the score line means we are equally matched. The result does not give the true picture of how the game went.

“We had a chance to not just beat them but bury them so I am not celebrating this because my strikers missed lots of chances,” Dokubo said.
