Rivers United, one of Nigeria’s representatives at this year’s CAF Confederation Cup have cried out over the welcome they received upon their arrival in Benghazi, Libya ahead of a second-leg play-off with Al-Nasr on Wednesday.

Having walloped Al-Nasr 5-0 in the first leg at the Adokiye Amiesimaka Stadium in Port Harcourt, Stanley Eguma and his men arrived in Libya on Monday against the expectation of their host, but what they met was, according to them, not an ideal atmosphere.

Media Officer of the team, Charles Mayuku in a statement said amongst other things that there were no police upon arrival, no provision for transportation and they were asked to pay for their own transportation.
