Plateau United Technical Adviser, Mbwas Mangut has called on the fans of the team to keep being patient with the team to get decent results before the flair and sexy play the team is known for returns.
Mbwas made this call after his team defeated visiting Abia Warriors 1-0 via an Olawale Doyeni penalty in the NPFL match day 28 at the New Jos Stadium.
He said “We are happy with the result, the stability is beginning to come as we need the results through getting all the points we can garner to stabilise the team, as getting more goals will bring the flair the team is known for. Some of our players are getting to play together for the first time but they’ll gel together soon and we introduce Charles Henlong to stabilise the middle and help the young players. I’ll call on our fans to be patient with the team and keep supporting us, as we’ll make.them happy as always”.
In his response, Coach Imama Amakpakabo of Abia Warriors, regretted the lost chances his team had that they could not convert which would have changed the narratives.
Imama said ” the one-on-one chances we had that were about four which were not converted would have changed the narratives, that’s to tell you we didn’t play defensive game. We’ll go back and keep pushing as there are more games to be played before the end of the season. However, I’ll still question some of the calls by the referee”.
The Abia Warriors coach further called on Nigeria teams to work on their goal scoring abilities as that is one traits that bedevils Nigeria Football.
This win takes Plateau United to 14th on the log with 34pts as they go in search of points to Ijebu ode to Play Sunshine Stars in wk29 match.
