Biffo calls loss at Pillars disappointing
Abia Warriors head coach, Abdul Usman Biffo has described as disappointing his side’s loss at former Nigerian champions, Kano Pillars.
The Umuahia Warriors lost 0-2 to the Pyramid City side in Sunday’s Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) matchday 35 clash at the Sani Abacha Stadium in Kano.
Two first half goals off the foot of duo, Nwagua Nyima in the 25th minute and captain, Rabiu Ali in the 27th minute proved adequate to hand the Kano landlords the whole three points at stake in the clash. Biffo said forthright that his match plans failed his side in the crucial match against Kano Pillars.
“The outcome of the clash was not what we planned for coming to Kano to confront Kano Pillars.
“I think we have ourselves to blame for the poor performance as our tactics failed us woefully.
“Unfortunately, before we could come up with the required change the home side had scored their two goals.
“Well, this one is gone we have to look forward to other matches on the calendar to ensure we get good results,” said the former Niger Tornadoes coach.
Biffo however could not hide his joy for the Kano Pillars precious captain and midfielder, Rabiu Ali.
