Head coach of Remo Stars, Daniel Ogunmodede has bemoaned his players recklessness which cost them the maximum points against Bendel Insurance after playing out a 1-1 draw.
In the first stanza of the Nigeria Professional Premier League, newly promoted Bendel Insurance won the first leg tie of this encounter at thier home ground with a 3-0 result and now they have picked a vital point to firmly keep them top of the log and also maintain thier unbeaten run in 14 games.
Daniel Ogunmodede’s side had gone ahead in the 16th minute through Congolese midfielder Kwame Mawuena strike but the joy was shortlived after Bendel Insurance grabbed the equalizer four minutes later through Divine Nwachukwu.
Ogunmodede who was visibly not pleased with the outcome of the game said that the result is a bitter pill he will have to swallow in his post match interview.
“My boys were reckless in the box and we suffered for our mistake. It is one of the bitter pills one has to swallow as a coach.”
The NPFL Group A leaders Bendel Insurance, though have not secured three maximum points in all their five games so far in the second round of the season but remain up the ladder with 28 points as closest chasers Akwa Utd surrendered all three points at Plateau Utd as Enyimba moved to the second position on 24 points after pipping Kwara Utd in Akure.
