On the squad front, Mangut confirmed that Nasarawa United remains largely intact, with minimal injury concerns. The only notable absentee is Jofrank Istifanus, who is recovering from a groin injury. However, Mangut expressed confidence in the depth of the squad, stating that suitable replacements are available to fill the gap. “We have those who can make up for his absence,” he said, underscoring the team’s preparedness and resilience.
Mangut’s comments reflect the growing anticipation surrounding the match, which could be a turning point in Nasarawa United’s season. The club has shown strong performances in recent fixtures, including a notable victory over Plateau United, which Mangut previously praised as a testament to the team’s character and determination. The semi-final clash is expected to draw significant attention from fans across Nasarawa State and beyond.
With both teams aiming to reach the final, the encounter promises to be a thrilling contest. Mangut’s message to the players is clear: give everything on the pitch to make supporters proud. The outcome of this match could shape the trajectory of Nasarawa United’s campaign in the President Federation Cup, setting the stage for a potential title showdown.
