With just one round of match to be played and occupying the fourth position in French Ligue 1, Super Eagles left-back Taye Taiwo, still exudes confidence of appearing in next year’ UEFA Champions League with Olympique Marseille as his team push for a third-place finish to get the ticket.

In a chat with media sources, the left-footed bomber stated, “Yes, we might be occupying the fourth position now but by our last game, we are very sure of moving to the third position. It is very possible and everybody is working towards this goal after we lost out in the League Cup.

“Even if we are playing away, we are going for the maximum points and there is no stopping us. We need the ticket to get back to where we belong.”

He described the League Cup loss to PSG as very painful for him, stressing, “In as much as I would love to forget that experience, it will continue to come to me. It was a painful loss. I really would have loved to win the cup but it was not meant to be. It is just how it was destined to be and I take it like that.”

Marseille with 59 points from 37 games will be taking on second-placed Bordeaux in an away game while third-placed Lille with 61 points from 37 games is also going away to fifth placed Rennes.

A win for Taye’ team and a loss for Osaze Odemwingie’s Lille, will actualize the dreams of the power-shooting Super Eagles left-back.
