Fidelis Ilechukwu of Rangers International has lamented the inability of his team to pick the maximum points against Akwa United, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

A spirited Akwa United side held the reigning NPFL champions to a 1-1 draw in Enugu on Sunday in a Matchday 28 of the 2024/2025 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium, Enugu.

llechukwu, in a post-match reaction, said that his players underrated the opponents, describing the outcome of the game as unfortunate.

“I think we did not put in our best in the first half, maybe due to Akwa United’s position on the log, and it nearly cost us the match.

"It is quite unfortunate that what we expected was not what we saw in the game. I feel my players underrated our opponent. This result is a very big setback to the team’s ambition." 

Rangers now occupy the 5th spot on the twenty-team log with 42 points from 28 matches and will next host Kwara United FC in a match day 29 fixture inside Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium, Enugu.
