Theophilus Afelokhai, has insisted that he believes Enyimba will beat Zamalek in Cairo when the two sides clash in a CAF champions league game.
The Nigerian league defending champions are third on the log with no point, and will be hoping to beat the remaining two games against Egypt and South Africa's Sundowns.
Afelokhai was a part of the NPFL All Stars that played Valencia in their Spanish tour and he has left the base in Spain with the remaining five Enyimba players to join the rest of the team in Egypt.
"I haven’t lost hope or else I wouldn’t have left Spain to Egypt when I’m billed to start against Malaga but I’m leaving the camp here to go to Cairo because I believe it is possible."
"Remember they beat us at home so we know we can also beat them at their home then beat Sundowns in the final game to qualify."
"I know this and my colleague know it too so we are all optimistic," Afelokhai said.
The goalkeeper also described his experience in Spain with the NPFL All-Star as wonderful.
"I learned a lot of things from the way Valencia played to their organization. Those were things I had to learn. It was something good and I am lucky to be among the team in Spain."
"This is my first time in Spain and I must tell you I am taking a lot of things back to Nigeria with me. Things that will help my game in the future," Afelokhai said.
The NPFL All-Star will be without five Enyimba players, Afelokhai, Chinedu Udoji, Dare Ojo, Ezekiel Bassey and Joseph Osadiaye, as they take on Malaga on Friday night.
