Coach Ebuk made this known in an interview after the match day 3 encounter at the Aper Aku Stadium, Makurdi.

The team lost by four goals to nil after conceding a goal before the break, and later conceded three more goals in the second half.

The gaffer, Usen Ebuk, attributed the loss to lack of concerntration, determination, coordination as well as his girls not playing to instructions, trying so much to impress individually, especially in the second period.

"For the first half they had 50-50 chances of equally scoring and even winning the game but they couldn't convert the chances they had. I need to really work on the team especially on the defense line effectively as I have never conceded such goals ever since I started coaching."

Also speaking, the coach of the host side, Christopher Danjuma, described the league as a journey, adding that the end point is the CAF Women's Champions League.

"The prize is CAF (Women's Champions League), so every match we play is to make sure we gather the points that are necessary. Ibom Angels is good side as everyone comes with a game plans. You see that it took us time to get our first goal*"

Winifred Eyebhora opened scoring at the 36th minute of the game, while Tarnum Dooshima made it two from the spot, as she also put her name in the score sheet 6 minutes after the hour mark. Amarachi Okoronkwo completed the rout in injury time.

The Orange Ladies next play FC Robo Queens on Wednesday 21st December in Uyo.
