“It’s all good but then you win some, you lose some; do I wish it was different, of course I do but then the certain things are beyond ones control.
“Truth is play-offs are tricky, at that point, you know it can swing either way, so it could have been either of us, naturally we both loved to win.
“We can only have one winner, so next year I’d redeem myself; look on the bright side, the winner is Nigerian too, so it’s a win win,’’ he said.
