Rangers International Chief Coach, Ekeh Ekenedilichukwu, believes his team’s goalless draw against Enyimba FC in Aba will serve as a source of motivation for their upcoming fixtures. The reigning NPFL champions earned a valuable point in the rescheduled matchday 15 tie of the 2024/2025 season, extending their unbeaten run to eight matches.
Ekenedilichukwu described the encounter as highly competitive and entertaining, with both teams delivering commendable performances despite failing to find the back of the net. “Coming all the way from Enugu to pick a point off Enyimba was not an easy task, even though our target was to secure all three points,” he said.
Reflecting on the game plan, the coach praised his players’ discipline and tactical execution. “Both sides played well, but my players were at their best. We sat back to counter our opponents effectively. This result will surely motivate the boys for future games as we continue our unbeaten streak,” he added.
With the draw, Rangers now sit fourth on the 20-team NPFL table with 24 points from 16 matches. The result underlines the team’s resilience as they gear up for their next challenge.
Rangers will host table-toppers Rivers United at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium, Enugu, on Sunday, December 8, 2024, in what promises to be another thrilling encounter in the NPFL campaign.
