Dogo said: "We are gutted to lose today, but we can't fault our effort. I am incredibly proud of the team's display. We dominated the game, created numerous chances, and deserved more.

 "Sometimes, football can be cruel, but we will take the positives, regroup, analyze our performance, and come back stronger in our next game against Ikorodu City at our home ground."

The narrow defeat leaves Nasarawa United in 18th position on the league table, with twenty-two points, while El-Kanemi tentatively moves to 4th position with 35 points with a game lesser.
