“We are very happy for the victory which it was a difficult game,” Finidi told Rivers United media.
“The first half we created one or two chances but in the second half the team was a little bit nervous trying to hold on to the only goal instead of going for the second.
“At the tall end of the game we pushed back defensively yo see how we can preserve the lead.”
Rivers United returned to the summit following the win.
