 NPFL: Heavy defeat to Katsina United wake-up call for Abia Warriors – Amapakabo


Abia Warriors technical adviser, Imama Amapakabo, says the 5-1 defeat to Katsina United is a wake- up call for his side.


The Umuahia club dropped to fourth position on the log following the heavy loss.


The defeat also put a dent on the team’s chances of securing a continental ticket.


“I think this 5-1 defeat to Katsina United is a wake-up call for my team,” Amapakabo said after the game.


“With four games to go, like I always say, we just have to keep our heads firmly on our shoulders and work hard.”


The former Rangers gaffer also reflected on his side’s performance in the game.


He said the harsh weather conditions and poor playing surface also contributed to his team’s defeat.


“One of the things I always try to do as a human being, not just as a coach, is avoid making excuses for defeat. But there were a lot of things that went wrong,” he added.


“Even the dustiness of the pitch was a factor, not to mention playing at 3 o’clock here in Katsina where we all know how harsh the weather can be. But would that have changed the outcome?.
