The Umuahia Warriors were held to a goalless draw by the Olukoya Boys in Monday’s Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) matchday 33 clash at the Agege Township Stadium in Lagos.
Onyeali said the draw will greatly help his side in their quest to avoid the drop in the league season.
“One point at Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries (MFM) FC is good result and actually came at the a time we needed it the most.
“The draw will greatly help us stave off the scare of relegation confronting us at the moment.
“Abia Warriors are playing good football; it’s just unfortunate we are not getting the desired results.
“However, I know we will get it right in the remaining matches on the calendar.
“Abia Warriors will not go down on relegation, we will certainly remain in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL),” the former Bussdor United star told supersport.com.
Abia Warriors remain in 16th spot on the Nigerian top-flight log on 40 points, 13 behind league leaders Wikki Tourists.
