Enyimba FC of Aba on Sunday defeated Rangers International of Enugu 1-0 at the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL)<\/a> match played at FC Ifeanyi Ubah Stadium, Nnewi, Anambra.<\/p>\n

The only goal of the match was scored by Emeka Ogbonna at the 89th minute to give the visitors the maximum three points.<\/p>\n

Speaking after the match, Rangers International FC Coach, Abdul Maikaba, said that his team was not lucky against the Aba giants.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe missed lots of chances but they were able to score one of their created chances and this was a match we would have won.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe game exposed some areas that need to be worked on and we are going to do that before our next match, \u201che said.<\/p>\n

He attributed Rangers loss to the lack of football competition unlike Enyimba FC which had been engaged in continental competition.<\/p>\n

\u201cEnyimba were in better match fitness than my players but my players gave a good account of themselves,\u201c Maikaba said.<\/p>\n

He said that the pitch at Nnewi was not good for football and that his players would have done better on a good turf.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt is just early because I believed we can rectify issues and continue with our good form to achieve our target for the season,\u201d the coach said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
