Plateau United’s technical adviser, Mbwas Mangut, has pointed to the poor condition of the playing surface at Ahmadu Bello Stadium in Kaduna as a factor in his team’s 1-1 draw with Niger Tornadoes.
In a post-match interview, Mangut acknowledged the impact of the pitch on his team’s performance, though he expressed satisfaction with the result.
“We are happy with the one point; we came with the mindset to see if we can get the maximum points,” he said.
“You could see the condition of the ground; it didn’t allow us to express ourselves the way we used to play.”
Mangut reassured fans, saying, “With what we are doing, every fan should be patient. I believe that at the end of the day, this team will definitely be where they belong. There are so many factors that will take us to that level, and we are working on that.”
With the draw, Plateau United moved up to 15th position on the table.
