AFC Champions League: Onyekuru dares Ronaldo’s Al Nassr

Henry Onyekuru is upbeat Al-Feiha can beat Cristiano Ronaldo’s Al Nassr in their AFC Champions League clash.

Al Feiha will host Al Nassr in the Round of 16 second leg fixture in Riyadh on Wednesday.

The hosts lost the first leg 1-0 one week ago.

Ronaldo scored the winning goal nine minutes from time.

Onyekuru is however confident his side can overturn the slim deficit and secure a place in the quarter-finals.

“There is nothing impossible in football, and our goal is definitely to win,” the former Monaco forward told reporters ahead of the game.

“We will face Al-Nassr, and our first goal is to win and play strong, and we must abandon caution in order to advance to the quarter-finals.

“It is true that Al-Nassr is a big team and has good elements, but we want to prove ourselves by winning.

“It does not matter who scores against Al-Nassr, the most important thing for me is to achieve victory and make the fans happy.”

Onyekuru scored a brace for Al-Feiha against Al-Hazm last weekend.
