Orji admitted that his side have gifted too many goals.

“It’s a big worry. We’ve been doing what we’re supposed to do to ensure that we stop conceding unnecessary goals because, you see, all the goals we’ve conceded have been gifted,” Orji told reporters after the game against Ikorodu City.

“It’s the defenders who gift them away. They give away the balls for the opponents to score against us.”
