Nyima Nwagua, the captain of Rivers United, is confident in the team’s ability to secure victory in the ongoing CAF Confederation Cup. The Port Harcourt club enhanced their chances of advancing to the knockout stage by triumphing 3-2 over Academica do Lobito from Angola.

Having collected nine points from five matches, the former Nigerian champions currently hold the third spot in Group C. To claim a spot in the quarter-finals, Stanley Eguma’s squad must prevail over Ghana’s Dream FC in their upcoming match in Uyo.

Nwagua’s optimism shines through as he envisions Rivers United reaching the pinnacle of the competition. “In football, anything is possible. Nevertheless, my teammates and I are committed to giving our all to reach the finals,” he declared following the victory in Luanda.
