NPFL: Akwa United boss Osho blames elementary mistakes for defeat to Bayelsa Utd

Akwa United head coach Fatai Osho has admitted that elementary mistakes were responsible for his team’s defeat to Bayelsa United on Saturday.

The Promise Keepers took the lead thrice against the hosts but ended up losing 5-3.

Osho expressed disappointment at the manner with which his team conceded three goals in the last fifteen minutes of the game.

It’s a big shame that we are losing this type of game the way we did. We were in total control and deserved to have come out with all three points but lots of elementary errors on our part cost us the win,” Osho told the club’s official website.

At this level of football you can’t make such mistakes because if you do you get punished and that is exactly what happened to us in this game.

”It’s unbelievable that we scored three goals and didn’t win or get a point out of this game. We have to quickly address all noticeable mistakes so we can come out strong in our next game”.

Akwa United will next face Sporting Lagos on matchday two at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium Nest of Champions in Uyo.
