Technical adviser of Rangers International F.C., Fidelis Ilechukwu, has reaffirmed his team’s determination to sustain their impressive run of form in the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL).

The Flying Antelopes remain unbeaten in their last four league matches, demonstrating renewed consistency at a crucial stage of the season. Their latest outing saw them grind out a hard-fought goalless draw against Katsina United F.C. at the Muhammadu Dikko Stadium last Sunday—an away result Ilechukwu described as valuable.

“We will keep our heads held high because the point gained in Katsina is very important to us,” Ilechukwu told Rangers media.

Attention now shifts to what promises to be a stern test against Nasarawa United F.C. in Enugu this weekend. Nasarawa United are widely regarded as one of the strongest contenders in the league this season, adding further significance to the encounter.

Ilechukwu expressed confidence in his squad’s readiness, dismissing fatigue as a potential excuse. “We are facing one of the best in the league, Nasarawa United. They are a good side. Fatigue won’t be an excuse because we started preparations early, immediately we returned from Katsina,” he stated.

Opinion: Consistency Could Define Rangers’ Season

Rangers’ recent form suggests a team rediscovering its rhythm at the right time. In a league as competitive as the NPFL, consistency often separates title challengers from mid-table sides. Avoiding defeat in four consecutive matches may not grab flashy headlines, but it signals discipline, structure, and resilience.

The upcoming clash against Nasarawa United will serve as a real barometer of Rangers’ ambitions. A strong performance at home could not only extend their unbeaten streak but also send a statement to the rest of the league that the Flying Antelopes are serious contenders.

Ilechukwu’s calm but determined tone reflects a coach focused on incremental progress rather than hype. If Rangers maintain this mentality—valuing every point and preparing meticulously—they could very well turn steady momentum into a memorable campaign.

For Enugu fans, this weekend offers more than just another match; it presents an opportunity to witness whether their team’s resurgence is truly built to last.
