Plateau United head coach, Zachary Barajes has said there is work to be done before his side can climb out of the murky waters of relegation.
The Tin City side pipped Abia Warriors 1-0 in Sunday’s NPFL matchday 25 clash at the Umuahia Township Stadium.
Substitute Ibeh Johnson scored the match winner for the Jos landlords as they notched their first away win in the 25-week-old top-flight.
Baraje said he will build on the away win to ensure his side win more matches.
“We are not completely out of the relegation zone. The outcome of the next match against Akwa United will decide whether we have achieved the breakthrough or not, but that aside we are really happy about the win at Abia Warriors and our first on the road this season.
Teams are tightly parked on the league log; any small slip and you will find yourself way down the base so there is no celebration or relaxation right now.
“We will definitely build on the success to ensure we win our next match against Akwa United and other matches.
“Neither side played particularly well, but I think my match plan worked as we tried to frustrate them, then look for a small opening to throw the killer punch.
“The key thing is that we are heading home with three points ” said the former Akwa United and Enyimba coach to supersport.com.
The away win at Abia Warriors takes Plateau United’s points haul to 29 from 24 matches.
