Coach Finidi George has said Rivers United won’t give up in their quest to win the Nigerian Premier Football League (NPFL) title this season.

United occupy the second position on the table, trailing league leaders, Reno Stars, by 11 points.

However, Finidi is optimistic that the league is not over and that things could favour his side in the remaining 11 games left.

“We will fight. In this league, anything can happen. We had a bad run in two or three games, which held us back. But we will fight till the end. Nothing is easy at this point. Nobody knows what is going to happen,” Finidi said.

“We see Remo up there, but they might lose a game and that might affect them. That was what happened to us. We lost a game and we started struggling, but I think we are getting back into our form, which is good for us toward the end of the league.

“Remo are doing so well, but a lot can happen in 11 games. So, we will be focused on each game as it comes. We are not looking at Remo.”

Rivers United will on Sunday welcome Niger Tornadoes in their quest to win the league.
