The club returned to winning ways in the clash against Niger Tornadoes on Sunday after a three-game barren run.<\/p>\n

Ndidi declared that they will keep working hard to pick a continental ticket.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are capable of beating anyone, anywhere,\u201d he told the NPFL troll<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know we can be more compact as a group, we know it will be very tough.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are winning games again now but know we can defend better and attack better. because I am sure other top teams in the division will both find their form and everyone will have to fight to the very end.<\/p>\n

\u201cSo the more games we can win now, the better \u2013 and where better to start than at Kwara United?\u201d<\/p>\n
