Lobi Stars FC Technical Adviser, Daniel Amokachi, believes the team’s narrow defeat to Remo Stars in their Matchday 10 NPFL clash does not accurately reflect the performance on the pitch.
The Makurdi-based side put in a strong display against Remo Stars, creating several promising scoring chances that could have earned them at least a point. However, missed opportunities from Martins Ossy and Jimmy Iteji saw the team fall short of securing a crucial draw.
Speaking after the loss at Remo Stars Stadium in Ikenne, Amokachi expressed pride in his players’ performance, despite the disappointing result.
He acknowledged that the lads are adapting very well to his philosophy which has improved them.
He said: “We played a 4-5-1 formation away from home, and it suits us very well. When you play like that, you need to be focused 120% but when you go to sleep, you get punished.
“When you come into a team, and the window is closed, you work with what you have and I am happy the lads are responding very well.
“Tactically, if you watch the game, they had a decent game. We will keep doing what we have to do and pick points away from home because it will do us well.”
He promised to sort out the grey areas he identified and pick the positive gains while pledging to put the team in shape before the Abia Warriors visit on match day 11 at the Lafia City Stadium.”
