We will continue to fight for NPFL survival – Nasarawa United Coach, Arikya

Nasarawa United Interim coach, Abubakar Arikya, has said his team will continue to work hard to avoid relegation in the Nigeria Premier Football League this season.

The Solid Miners gave their battle for survival a boost with a 1-0 win against Shooting Stars in Jos on Saturday.

A first-half goal from right-back Nelson Abiam gave the host all three points in the game.

Nasarawa United moved to eighth position in Group A following the hard-earned victory.

“We will continue to work hard for stability and intensify our survival battle,” he said in a post-match interview

“It was a very difficult match for us against Shooting Stars but we thank God for victory.

“They are a good side no doubt but we got the needed points. We have two matches left we will take them as they come but we are hopeful to overcome the hurdles.”
