Nigeria’s representative in the CAF Confederations Cup, Rivers United on Sunday thrashed ASEC Mimosa of Cote d’Ivoire 3-0 in a Group B clash in Port Harcourt.
Recall that Rivers United lost its first game of the competition when they suffered a 3-0 defeat to Congo’s Diables Noirs away.
However, the Nigerian club side was able to redeem its image against the Ivorian side with an emphatic 3-0 against ASEC Mimosa.
Stanley Eguma’s side took the lead in the first minute through Malachi Ohawume.
Ukeme Williams doubled Rivers United’s advantage three minutes before the break.
It was three minutes after the break with Dennis Ndasi nodding home the third goal from Ebube Duru’s cross.
Rivers United will travel away to Democratic Republic of Congo side, DC Motema Pembe for their next game on Sunday.
