Finidi George Under Pressure as Rivers United’s NPFL Title Lead Fades

Finidi George Under Pressure as Rivers United’s NPFL Title Lead Fades — 1 of 11
1 / 11

Three weeks ago, Rivers United seemed set to run away with the NPFL title. Now Finidi George faces a growing crisis. Successive narrow defeats have drained the team of confidence. Opponents have parked the bus and waited for the break. Rivers United still dominate possession but struggle to penetrate. Key attackers are out of form and there is no Plan B. With just eight games to go, the gap to Rangers International and Ikorodu City is worryingly small. The next away trip to Nasarawa United will test this squad’s mentality. Can Finidi’s big-game experience save their fading title challenge?

It's curious that despite dominating possession, Rivers United have struggled to break down opponents who simply sit deep and absorb pressure.

Putting all the pressure on Finidi ignores how a lack of killer instinct and squad depth might be fueling these narrow losses.
