Nigeria’s representatives, Rivers United, secured a valuable away point after holding Zambia’s Power Dynamos to a goalless draw in their CAF Champions League encounter on Saturday, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Both teams entered the fixture in search of redemption, having lost their opening group matches Rivers United falling to Egypt’s Pyramids FC, while Power Dynamos were beaten by Morocco’s RS Berkane.

In a tightly contested affair, Rivers United showed discipline and resilience, frustrating the hosts and limiting clear-cut chances to ensure they returned home with a crucial point from Zambian soil.

The result keeps Rivers United in contention as attention now shifts to the reverse fixture.

Both sides will meet again on the next matchday at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo, where the Nigerian champions will look to capitalize on home advantage to strengthen their position in the group.
