CAF Confederation Cup: Idah slams Rivers United over early elimination

Former Super Eagles goalkeeper, Peterside Idah, has expressed disappointment over the exit of Rivers United from the CAF Champions League.

The Pride of Rivers were eliminated from the competition after a 2-2 home draw against Cote d’Ivoire’s San Pedro on Sunday.

They crashed out of the competition on the away goals rule after both teams were tied 3-3 on aggregate.

Idah pointed that the players and officials failed to repay the trust of the supporters.

“We are all very disappointed with Rivers United after all the government have done for the team,” Peterside wrote on X.

“Even appointing Chris Green as the sole administrator of the team.

“The players and coaches must own up that they have disappointed us, We are out of the champions league.”

Rivers United will now shift their focus to the Nigeria Premier Football League, NPFL, and the President Federation Cup.
