Wikkki
Tourists head coach Aliyu Zubairu is delighted with the progress made by his side
in the ongoing Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL), Sportinglens.blogspot.com reports.
The Big
Elephants recorded a big win over Rivers United in the matchday 11 clash at
their adopted home ground, Pantami Stadium in Gombe on Sunday.
Abba Umar
and Issa Gata goals were all Wikki Tourists needed to secure maximum three
points at stake in the encounter.
Speaking
after the game, Zubairu praised his
wards for the win while identifying Christian Weli's first half miss as the
turning point in the game.
“Rivers
United is a very experienced side. We were lucky because they had the first
chance of the game and if they had taken their opportunities, particularly the
first chance of the game when one of their players (headed wide from close
range), it could have been a different game.
“Our team
has been making progress match by match and it showed (on Sunday) against
Rivers United,” Zubairu said.
