2024/2025 NPFL Match Day 2: Victory over Bayelsa United non negotiable, says Baba Ganaru

Posted : 14 September 2024

The Head Coach of Akwa United Football Club, Muhammed Baba Ganaru, says his players are committed and ready to fight for the maximum three points against Abia Warriors on Sunday. He added that victory in Uyo is non-negotiable.


Coach Baba Ganaru, in an exclusive interview, revealed that his team needs to be in top shape and play with confidence and determination to ensure a victory on Sunday.


Akwa United played to a goalless draw with Lobi Stars on Matchday 1 in Lafia and will be stepping out for their first home game at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium against neighbors Abia Warriors, who lost their first match 0-2 at home to Remo Stars.


“The game against Abia Warriors will be our first home match of the season, and we know that it will be a tough game. However, we are committed and ready to fight for all three points because this is a must-win game for us.


“We need to build on the one point we earned in Lafia by ensuring that we win on Sunday. As we start this season, we must leave no stone unturned and hit the ground running from the blast of the whistle.


“We have done a lot of work with the team, and we trust that the players understand the importance of starting well. We are optimistic that my players will be in top shape to deliver on Sunday.”


Head to Head


In the 19 previous meetings between Akwa United and Abia Warriors, the Promise Keepers have enjoyed four victories compared to the visitors' five, while ten of those games ended in draws. Last season, Akwa United recorded a 3-1 win in Eket before losing 2-0 in the reverse fixture in Umuahia.


Both teams are yet to score after their first outing and will be eager to find the back of the net on Sunday.
