NWFL playoff: Why Rivers Angels lost to Abia Angels – Blankson

Rivers Angels head coach, Tosan Blankson, has blamed missed chances for his team’s defeat to Abia Angels.

Abia Angels defeated Rivers Angels 1-0 in a matchday two fixture of the Nigeria Women Football League, NWFL, at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium , Port-Harcourt on Monday.

Winner David’s 26th minute header proved decisive in the encounter.

Blankson expressed disappointment with the outcome of the game.

“Sometimes football is cruel, the girls failed to deliver despite their efforts,” Blankson stated in a post-match interview.

“It’s a bad day for us as the strikers had enough chances but they couldn’t deliver.”

Rivers Angels occupy fourth position on the playoff table with three points from two matches.
