He made this know shortly after the game at the Lafia City as he believed that his side got punished for what he termed as temporary loss of concentration but expects his side to pick up in Ilorin when they host Plateau United on match day 21.

”We can’t use the fasting and the red card to justify our loss today, What made us concede our first goal was our momentary loss of concentration also, we were a man down, and there was no way of it not showing. Before we knew what was happening, our mistakes were punished”.
