NPFL:  Eguma Optimistic To Play Super Six

Technical manager of Rivers United FC of Port Harcourt, Stanley Eguma has said that his team was still on course to qualify for the Super Six despite the 2-1 loss against Lobi Stars of Makurdi.
The encounter was a rescheduled for week 11  in the Nigeria Professional Football League, (NPFL), that was played on Wednesday in Makurdi.
According to him, the narrow loss to their host will not affect the performance of his team rather it will make them put more efforts as Nigeria League Champions.
This was contained in his post match  interview and made available to  Tidesports by the media Officer of the club, Charles Mayuku, on Wednesday.
He attributed the loss to the centre referee for not managing the game well after he dished out five yellow cards  and one red card to his players.
“ I am not the one to judge the referee. I think we should have done better if not that the referee did not manage the game well.
“ The League is till on we are still on course for Super six game. We have not lost focus because we are still the current champions, I believe that at the end of the day we will be one of the clubs to play in the Super six. That is our target now.
“ We cannot say it is over simply because we lost one game today.
We still have other games to play and we are going to ensure we get good results from those games”, Eguma said.
