2024/2025 NPFL Match Day 38: Plateau United stuns Enyimba 1-0 in Aba

Posted : 27 May 2025

Enyimba International FC of Aba on Sunday lost their final match of the 2024/2025 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season 1-0 to visiting Plateau United at the Enyimba International Stadium, Aba, Abia State.


Yusuf Abdullahi scored the only goal of the match for the visitors in the 41st minute, giving his team the lead going into the break.


Upon resumption, Enyimba players fought to salvage a point from the match, but their efforts were fruitless as the visitors' defence stood firm until the final whistle.


Coach Mangut Mbwas of Plateau United said his team faced a lot of difficulties during the season, having been deducted three points and three goals, which threw them into disarray.


“We are pleased to have picked up three points against a big club like Enyimba, and I believe we will do better next season,” Mbwas said.


Plateau United captain Charles Henlong thanked God for a successful season but expressed disappointment at not securing a continental slot, which had been the players’ target before the season began.


“Now that the season is over and we finished strongly with a win against Enyimba on their home ground, it shows that next season will bring something better,” he said.


Paschal Eze, captain of Enyimba, said the result was not what they had hoped for, especially as it was the final match of the season, and they had every reason to give the fans something to cheer about.


“It is unfortunate that we lost the match, which we were not supposed to,” Eze said.


Enyimba ended the season in sixth position on the table with 55 points, while Plateau United finished seventh with 54 points after 38 matches.
