Rivers Angels head coach, Edwin Okon has attributed his team’s defeat to Mamelodi Sundown Ladies to missed chances while also blaming the officiating.
The Nigeria side suffered a 1-0 loss to Sundowns in the second group game played on Tuesday which dropped the team to the bottom of the table with no point.
While reacting to the outcome of the match, Okon said despite having most of the ball they failed to convert their chances.
“Yes, we were better with the ball but we missed chances and we paid for it. The officiating did not help too, that was never a goal but there’s nothing we can do about it.”
The Nigeria champions will confront Vihiga Queens of Kenya on Friday and an outright win, coupled with a huge number of goals is required for them to progress.
“We will approach the match as we normally approach other games and if the qualification comes we will take it,” he added.
