Ifeanyi Ubah, the owner of the visiting side, commended the players for putting up a good challenge in forcing 3SC to a 2-2 draw.

“It is not easy to pick an away draw from a club like 3SC,’’ he said.

Ubah further told newsmen that the two clubs were very strong teams, adding that they had both proved their stuff on the field of play.
