Head Coach of Hasaacas Ladies FC, Yusif Basigi attributed their loss to lack of concentration following a dissapointing defeat against River Angels.

The Doo Ladies suffered a 2-0 defeat to Nigeria’s Rivers Angels FC in the CAF Women’s Champions League WAFU Zone B qualifiers opener on Saturday evening.

A goal n each half propelled the Nigerians to a comfortable victory on the day.

Speaking to Happy FM after the game, Yussif Basigi attributed his side’s defeat to lack of concentration.

“We played against a good side and we are also a good side but a game of this nature, when you lose concentration, you are punished. We had clear chances to score but unfortunately we didn’t utilize them. We were in a hurry to score and as a result, we missed those chances.” he explained.

“If you see the goals that River Angels scored, they took their time to score and hence punished us for our lack of concentration. It was however a good game by all standards. It is our intention to qualify for the next stage of the competition so by all means we must win our next game which will see us to the semifinals depending on the results of the game between River Angels and AS Police. We are going all out to win.”

“I know it is going to be tough. I am not underestimating any club but we are winning that game. All the clubs here are good because they are champions from their various countries but winning is our target.”

Hasaacas Ladies has to beat Niger’s AS Police de Niamey in the next outing to ensure any chance of qualifying to the next stage of the competition.
