Nurudeen Aweroro, the technical lead for Shooting Stars, has pledged to overhaul the team’s recent struggles during their travels as they prepare for a high-stakes encounter. The Ibadan-based “Oluyole Warriors” have endured a dismal stretch on the road, suffering defeats in each of their previous seven away fixtures. This concerning trend has become a focal point for the coaching staff as the club seeks to maintain its competitive standing in the upper echelon of the league.
The challenge ahead is significant, as Shooting Stars are scheduled to visit Ikenne to face the reigning champions, Remo Stars. Despite the formidable nature of the opposition, Aweroro remains confident that his squad can snap their losing streak and secure a positive result away from home. Currently positioned fifth in the standings with a total of 50 points, the club views the upcoming derby as a pivotal opportunity to restore their defensive discipline and road reputation.
In a statement captured by OyoSportsNews, the tactical chief addressed the recurring defensive lapses and the psychological burden of their away form.
“On the issues of conceding goals and away form, we’ll keep doing more and more to change the narrative, and I believe our worries shall be over.”
