Super Eagles defender Raphael Onyedika has voiced confidence ahead of Club Brugge’s UEFA Champions League clash with Barcelona on Matchday Four, despite the Spanish giants being the overwhelming favourites.
Club Brugge will welcome the former European champions on Wednesday, and the Nigerian midfielder is optimistic about their chances of causing an upset.

“It won’t be an easy task, of course. But everyone here is looking forward to it. We know what’s coming, but we can’t be afraid,” Onyedika told the club’s official website.
The team enters the European fixture following a recent morale boost in their domestic league, having defeated Dender 2-1 in a Belgian Pro League encounter on Saturday.
Onyedika and his teammates will need to draw on that momentum as they look to secure a crucial result in their Champions League campaign.
