Nigeria international Godfrey Oboabona has explained why he was not handed game time in Rizespor’s 2-1 loss to Bursaspor in the Turkish Super Lig on Monday, December 5.

This would be the second time this season that the central defender has not started a league game, as he was unavailable for selection against Basaksehir as a result of injury.

“I played a game on Thursday in the Turkish Cup against Inegölspor and the coach decided to rest me in this game.”

“I am not injured, I am fine. ”

Oboabona lasted the distance against Inegölspor and assisted goalkeeper Gökhan Akkan to post a shutout in a 5-0 win over the opponents.
