Rivers United have bounced back from the heavy loss they suffered in their opening group game of the CAF Confederation Cup.
Despite playing outside their Port Harcourt base, the Pride of Rivers as they are fondly referred to, trounced Ivorian club ASEC Mimosa 3-0 at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo, on Sunday.
After Stanley Eguma’s men were beaten 3-0 in Brazzaville last weekend, they promised to step up their game against ASEC and they delivered on that promise with an emphatic victory that has shot them back to the reckoning.
