Back in 1998, Rivers United goalkeeper, Rotimi Sunday, was
in goal when Plateau United lost the then FA Cup, now Federation Cup to Wikki
Tourists.
Fast forward to 2016, the league’s longest serving
goalkeeper set a record as he didn’t concede a goal in 17 matches during the
2015/16 Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) season.
Sunday continues to raise bar and remains one of the reasons
why Rivers United have emerged as a force within a short time.
“Hardwork and dedication has been my watch words”, he said
to naijaleague.com.ng.
Sunday is already looking ahead to the new season with
optimism.
“We’re going into the season with confidence because our
pre-season has been fantastic. We won the Super Four and had a decent
preparation in Spain”, Rotimi stated.
Despite the arrival of Femi Thomas from Enyimba, Sunday
looks good to retain his place in-between the sticks for the Port-Harcourt
side.
