"Today (Sunday) is my happiest day, we won our biggest friendly against a high profile side, Enugu Rangers and Nigeria won their toughest Afcon challengers, the Elephants of Cote d' Ivoire.
"We've played several pre-season matches but none could be compared in standard with the Rangers' game.
"Rangers are a big side and have been involved in many championship both in and outside Nigeria so for us to beat them means we're ready for the league and can comfortably handle any opposition.
"Both sides didn't see it as a do-or-die encounter as it remains a build-up game ahead of the start of the league and I think Rangers gave us what it takes to play a big side," he said to supersport.com.
