POST-MATCH REPORT Rivers United 2-2 Bendel Insurance SUMMARY Rivers United twice came from behind to claim a 2-2 draw with Bendel Insurance at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium on Thursday. The Pride of Rivers, seeking to return to winning ways, were stunned by Greg Ikhenoba's men early as Meyuwa Oritseweyimi put the visitors ahead on six minutes. Ubong Friday put Rivers United level on the 34-minute mark with an absolute screamer from 25 yards out, leaving both sides level at half-time. Uche Collins gave Insurance the lead again four minutes after the restart, but Handsome Surveyor's strike from close range on 51 minutes got Rivers United back on level terms, ultimately earning a point. WHAT THIS MEANS We drop to third place on the NPFL log, seven points behind leaders Remo Stars after 21 matches. WHAT NEXT We make a trip to confront Heartland in Owerri on Sunday, February 2.
