“We are quite happy with our run in the League even if not 100%
perfect,” Finidi told Sports Boom.
“Every game is difficult in the NPFL people don’t know. They just feel
that if you get a draw, you would have won it.”

run of form.
“I must commend my boys so far for the unbeaten run in the league,” he added.

He definitely wants to prove himself and repair his image. He initially applied to coach the U17 Golden Eaglets, but NFF instead made him assistant to Paseiro and then the coach. They should have allowed him to start from there or to prove himself in the NOFL first, despite assisting Paseiro.
We’re taking note of Rivers United. I only wished they were also in Africa to compete against the Al-Ahlys, Sundowns, and Esperance.
