Rivers United skipper Nyima Nwagwa has stated that the Nigeria Premier Football League side is pleased with the goalless draw recorded away against Burkina Faso side Etoile Filante in Yamassoukro and will seek to see off the tie in Porthacourt when they play host to the Burkinabes in the return fixture of the second round of the CAF Confederation cup tie.

Nwagwa speaking in a chat with brila.net stressed that the game was a very tough game physically against their host and had wanted to win outrightly but not losing the encounter puts the tie very much within reach for the NPFL side to win and secure progression to the next round of the CAF Confederation cup.
