Niger Tornadoes Technical Adviser, Majin Mohammed, believed that overconfidence was the reason for his team’s defeat to Abia Warriors.
A strike from Sunday Megwo and an own goal from Chibueze Damian condemned Niger Tornadoes to 2-0 defeat at the Bako Kontagora Stadium, Minna on Sunday.
The defeat was Niger Tornadoes first home loss of the campaign.
Mohammed pointed that his players were carried away with their last away win in Katsina against Kano Pillars.
He admitted that though his team had their chances in the game they failed to convert them.
“First of all, I think we were carried away by the victory against Pillars, we thought we could just ride over Abia Warriors. We had our chances but couldn’t utilise them and the visitors capitalise on a defensive errors and took their chances, that was how conceded two cheap goals.” Mohammed told Niger Tornadoes media.
