Ladan Bosso: We could have beaten Rangers.

Head coach of Bayelsa United Ladan Bosso believes his team deserved more than a point in their NPFL Match Day 23 clash with with champions Rangers International on Sunday.

Both teams fought out a 0-0 draw at the Samson Siasia Stadium Yenagoa with chances opening up for either sides at the tail end of the game but none could convert.

Bosso believes that the result could have been different if his side did better than they did in the first half, especially by converting the scoring chances they had.

The introduction of the attacking quartet of Eyong Nneoyi, Ebimobowei Peter, Ebuka Ogbonna and Rabiu Abdullahi in the second half brought a scary spark out of the Bayelsa team with Rangers stretched to their limits but the reigning league champions dug deep in the end.

“We planned to go for the outright three points (against Rangers) but along the line we couldn’t. The final outcome is a draw and if Rangers can come here to draw, we can also go elsewhere and get it,” began Bosso to www.aclsports.com

“As far as I’m concerned, even when the match was going on in the first half, I believed my team would get better in the second half and they did just that. The performance in the second half was better than the first so that is the output of coaching.

“The issue now is the players taking their chances as early as possible. If they have taken those chances in the first half and get one or two goals in the first half which I saw those chances were available, it could have been a different story in the end,” added the former Nigeria Under 20 coach.

Bayelsa United with the draw stretched their mini-unbeaten run to three matches and are currently placed 12th on the league log, five points above the dreaded relegation zone.

Up next for the Prosperity Boys is a trip to Kwara United in Ilorin on Match Day 24.
