We're going all out for Akwa Utd - Mbwas

Plateau United coach, Mbwas Mangut is not playing down the potentials of Akwa United in this weekend match in Jos

The coach said Akwa United might not be at the top of the table but they are still a formidable team.

"I'm not going to look at Akwa United's position on the table. Again, I'm not going to be fooled because we got a point in Eket to believe we can easily over run the team in Jos.

"Not minding Akwa's position, they have always been a good side and we need to take them very serious. Even when we played draw in Eket, I knew how difficult it was," Mbwas said.

On Plateau United's gradual ascendance on the the table with 44 points and 4th on the table, Mangut said the team is gradually moving up and that it requires more commitment and concentration to continue to move up.

On the standard of the league this season, he said the league organisation is work in progress, but "it has been two steps forward one step backwards. But we will get there."
