Despite spending larger part of the season in group A's relegation zone, Nasarawa United coach Bala Arikya believes his team will beat the drop at the end of the season, reports Nigeriasoccernet.com.
Despite being the better side in their game against Plateau United on Sunday, the Solid Miners lost by a lone, a result many including the opposition coach believed was not the true reflection of the game.
Bala Arikya however, believes his boys will build on the performance against the 2017 NPFL champions to get the needed result against Shooting Stars who they play next in the league.
“Everyone can attest to the fact that we played better than our host today, we were just unlucky. It’s painful that we lost.
We now focus on our next game at home against the visiting Shooting Stars, where we hope to get the maximum points and continue our fight against the drop,” he said.
The Solid Miners will host Shooting Stars at the New Jos Stadium on Sunday in what could be a season decider for them
