After Plateau United’s 5-1 victory over Bayelsa United in Matchday 14 of the Nigeria Premier Football League, the Jos side shared a message for their visitors.
Plateau United took to their social media account to express sportsmanship and humor. Despite the dominant performance, the club posted a message on their official Twitter handle @plateau_united, wishing Bayelsa United a safe journey back to Yenagoa and thanking them for putting up a good fight in Jos.
The post on X shared days after the thumping win reads: “Dear Bayelsa United, we hope you arrived Yenagoa safely. Your safe arrival at your city gladens our hearts immensely. Thank you for giving us a good fight in Jos on Sunday. We will be with you in Yenagoa in the reverse fixture, please be nice.”
The message reflects a combination of sportsmanship and humor, showcasing a positive spirit in the competition. The reverse fixture between the two teams is anticipated to be another exciting encounter.
Bayelsa United FC’s poor start to the NPFL season suffered further blow with the heavy defeat in Jos.
The Yenegoa based outfit unlike conveyed in the Plateau United FC message will not head home yet but face Sporting Lagos FC on matchday 15, today.
The bottom placed Peace boys will need a positive result to stand a chance of emerging from the bottom of the log before heading home to face champions, Enyimba FC.
