Rivers United left no one in doubt they meant business in their second group game as they raced into the lead, barely sixty seconds into the game.

Despite playing outside their Port Harcourt base, the Pride of Rivers as they are fondly referred to, trounced Ivorian club ASEC Mimosa 3-0 at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, Uyo, on Sunday.last weekend, they promised to step up their game against ASEC and they delivered on that promise with an emphatic victory that has shot them back to the reckoning.

It was Malachi Ohawume who got that opening goal that ensured Rivers United had the best start possible while their opponents were rattled with the fiery start. Rivers United ensured they solidified their lead before the half-time break as Ukeme Williams made it 2-0 in the 42nd minute. As Rivers United pressed for more goals, coach Eguma injected two new players into the game as Mohammad Shiraz and Naibe Akpesiri replaced the duo of Paul Acquah and Malachi Ohawume.
