Heartland head coach Ramson Madu has described as ‘dangerous’ his side’s state Federation Cup final opponents SamDaddy FC.
The Nigeria National League (NNL) side will confront the non-league side in Sunday’s final of Imo State Federation Cup at the Dan Anyiam Stadium in Owerri.

'Fatigue affecting Rivers Utd'
The Naze Millionaires outplayed Heartland Feeders 2-1 in the semifinal while SamDaddy FC struggled to pip ISOPADEC 1-0 in their first attempt to set up an historic Cup
final against former Cup winners.
Madu said his side will treat the non-league side with due respect as they parade some experienced players.
“Yes, SamDaddy FC are a non-league side but they recruited some experienced and matured players for their Federation Cup campaign.
“SamDaddy FC are a dangerous side and could ruffle feathers if given unhindered room to operate.
“We will not treat them with kid gloves but pull our weights as well as the best legs to ensure we puncture their dream.
“We are not leaving any stone unturned in our preparation for the final as the memory is still fresh how the NNL newcomers, Papilo FC, piped us the last time to win the coveted trophy.
“We want to reclaim the state Federation Cup trophy while we set foot on the national stage to chance recreating history as well,” said Madu to supersport.com.
Heartland and SamDaddy FC will represent the state at the national Federation Cup final.
