three of the 2022/23 Nigeria Professional Football League will be wrapped up on Wednesday with a southwest derby between Remo Stars and 3SC in Ikenne, which will see coaches of the two sides; Daniel Ogunbodede and Gbenga Ogunbote clash in the league for the first time, TheRemo Stars and 3SC have opposing results going into the game today and the personalities as well as relationship between their coaches add to the potential rivalry between the two clubs.
Ogunbote, 3SC gaffer, was involved in this fixture last season, but he was in charge of Remo Stars, where he oversaw a victory in Ikenne and also earned a point away at Ibadan in the reverse fixture. Both games however didn’t go without the fans of both clubs having a spat. This season, Ogunbote is now in charge of the Oluyole Warriors after leading Remo to a continental spot last term and he needs a result in this game to show signs of rejuvenation after picking up just two points in the opening two games of the season.
“There are no emotions attached in this job. Last season I had a job with Remo and I did it, so, this time around I have a job with 3SC and my responsibility is to get results for my team,” Ogunbote said.
