Rivers United technical adviser, Finidi George, has blamed a defensive error for his team’s draw against Akwa United.
The Pride of Rivers were held to a 1-1 draw by Akwa United at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo, on Wednesday.
Finidi, however, commended the players for their performance in the game.
“I thought we would have won it, but it didn’t happen. I think the players did well; just a slight mistake defensively, and they got that equalizer,” Finidi told the club’s media.
“But I think in the second half, we had another opportunity where I thought the striker could have shot better. It didn’t happen, so at the end of the day, playing with one man less, we could manage the game and we got that one point.
“I am quite happy, even though I wanted the three points. Looking at the way everything unfolded, I think it’s a well-deserved point.”
