Rangers International FC suffered yet another setback in their Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) campaign, falling to Plateau United at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium. The loss marks their fourth home defeat of the season—making them joint holders of the most home losses in the league so far.
Under head coach Fidelis Ilechukwu, the Flying Antelopes have found it difficult to replicate the fortress-like dominance they enjoyed at home last season when they went unbeaten throughout. If they had maintained that form this season, they would currently be sitting in second place on the NPFL table.

The defeat to Plateau United has further dented Rangers’ title ambitions, with their inconsistency at home proving to be a major concern. Fans, who once saw the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium as an impenetrable stronghold, have been left frustrated by the team’s struggles in Enugu.
With the season reaching its decisive stages, Ilechukwu and his squad must quickly find a way to turn their home ground into a fortress once again if they hope to stay in the title race. Rangers’ next fixtures will be crucial in determining whether they can bounce back and regain momentum.
