NPFL: Finidi thrilled with Rivers United’s draw with Abia Warriors

Finidi George, the technical adviser for Rivers United, has expressed delight over the team's goalless draw against Abia Warriors. Finidi commented on Abia Warriors' home ground, stating it is a challenging place to secure a point. The seasoned coach remains hopeful that the draw would be instrumental in helping his team reach their season targets.

"Aimlessly roaming to earn a point here (Umuahia) against a tough side is a positive outcome. Many teams have lost here by considerable margins, but we came here aiming to control the game and score a goal, which proved elusive," Finidi remarked to the club's media. He further acknowledged that setbacks such as this are common in football and emphasized their contentment with the single point.

Rivers United currently stand as the team without a loss this season, holding the second spot on the NPFL table with 16 points from eight matches.
