In the Matchday 35 showdown of the Nigeria Premier Football League, visiting Bendel Insurance FC managed to hold Abia Warriors Football Club of Umuahia to a goalless draw at the Umuahia Township Stadium on Sunday. The scoreline may have flattered the visitors, as Abia Warriors had numerous opportunities throughout the game but failed to capitalize on them.


One standout performer of the match was Bendel Insurance's goalkeeper, Ali Ishaku, who made his league debut. Despite the pressure from the home team, Ishaku remained unthreatened throughout the duration of the encounter, showcasing his skills and composure under pressure.


For Abia Warriors, it was a frustrating game as their inability to convert chances into goals proved to be their downfall. Despite their best efforts and dominance on the field, they were unable to break the deadlock, leaving the fans disappointed.


The draw comes at a crucial time for both teams, with the season entering its final stages. For Abia Warriors, who have played six games in just 14 days, the result means they must quickly regroup and focus on their upcoming mid-week NPFL encounter against Gombe United in Gombe State. The tight schedule presents a challenge for the players and coaching staff, requiring careful management of resources and energy.


Abia Warriors Coach, Bethel Orji, expressed his frustration with his side's lack of clinical finishing in front of goal. Despite creating numerous scoring opportunities, the strikers failed to convert them into goals, highlighting a key area for improvement in the team's performance.


As the season progresses, both teams will be looking to secure vital points in their quest for success in the league. While Bendel Insurance FC will be pleased with their resilient defensive display, Abia Warriors will be eager to rectify their profligacy in front of goal and return to winning ways in their upcoming fixtures.
