Wydad Athletic Club coach, Adil Ramzi is expecting a big fight from Enyimba in the second leg of their African Football League quarter-final clash.

The Red Castle defeated the People’s Elephant 1-0 in the first leg on Sunday.

Yayha Jabrane netted the decisive goal from the penalty spot eight minutes before the break.

Enyimba wasted a number of chances in the game with Chijioke Mbaoma, Ekene Awazie and Daniel Daga all coming close to getting a goal.

Ramzi expects George Finidi’s side to make things difficult for his side in the return leg.

“It’s a match with two periods,” Ramzi said, as per Le Martin.

“I’m happy with the result, especially since we scored and didn’t concede.

“Enyimba is a good team and we will have to concentrate in Casablanca during the return match. Matches only end with the referee’s whistle.”

The second leg is billed for the Stade Mohamed V, Casablanca this weekend.

The winner of the tie will face either Esperance of Tunisia or TP Mazembe in the semi-final.
