Sunshine gaffer, Duke Udi has heaped praises on one of his new recruits, Jide Fatokun for his discipline and outstanding performance displayed in Owerri after a crucial away point earned by 'Owena Whales'.
Heartland couldn't make use of their begging chances and Sunshine Stars too had the chance to nick maximum points when Ezekiel Thompson set up Franklin Sasere in front of goal at the tail-end of the game but the big framed striker's effort was blocked to safety minutes before the game came to an end.
Speaking to codedreporter.blogspot.com.ng,
elated Udi described the performance of debutant Jide Fatokun, as classy and overwhelming.
"Since he joined us, he has been wonderful. Very discipline and hard working. A fighter to the core.
"Everyone loves him here in Sunshine FC Akure. He is very humble and always ready to learn." He concluded.
Fatokun teamed up with his former boss at Sunshine FC this season, after an excellent and brilliant performance for Osun United last season.
The lanky midfielder recounts the experience of playing in the Nigeria Professional Football League for the first time.
"My experience is massive, I thought the first match will be hard for me, but with the courage and support of my coach and senior colleagues, I was able to adapt without headache.
"I see my new team at the top at the end of the season because, we have experienced and young players in the squad who are ready to fight for the team coupled with amazing coaches.
"Sunshine Stars will be the team to beat this season." The former Gray FC of Ede concluded.
Sunshine Stars will welcome Katsina Utd on Wednesday in Match Day two (2) of Nigeria Professional Football League, NPFL.
