Rivers Utd Won’t Be Carried Away By Good Run

Rivers United coach
Stanley Eguma has insisted the team will not be carried away after a second straight win on Wednesday.
The Port Harcourt team is now fifth on the table with 16 points, just three points behind the league leaders FC IfeanyiUbah after they stopped El Kanemi 1-0 at home on Wednesday
“Nobody is getting carried away here. We have achieved nothing and will continue to work hard,” maintained Eguma, who was served an ultimatum recently to get results or be fired.
“The league is a marathon and not a sprint…….we still have 28 more games to play.
“There is still room for improvement but we will get there eventually,”
Chukwunonso Okonkwo struck in the 66th minute to fire Rivers United past a resolute El-Kanemi Warriors.
The forward rounded off a flowing team move that saw youngster Daniel Israel provide the decisive pass as United won successive games in the NPFL for the first time this season.
The home side struggled to break down the visitors in a first half that failed to spark into life at the Yakubu Gowon (former Port Harcourt Liberation) Stadium.
The visitors hardly threatened all game with only a couple of gilt-edged opportunities to show for their exertions all afternoon.
