Good one. Na this kind result I Dey like for our league. No be home-team-must-win-Syndrome.
See our league news, League opener for that matter. No funfair about it. No comment at all here. How una wan take make this league make sense without the necessary followership, viewership and funfair ?
Some people haven’t seen a league game in their life before, yet they will be the first to say negative things about the league.
We need reorientation in this country!
Na tru
We as Nigerians also have a role to play in developing our league
Let us also try to watch our local team’s and talk about them
https://youtu.be/Rq7r-kv8JZc . Not a bad display of our league though. Our football authorities needs to find a way to keep our best local league players to play sufficiently in our league before venturing unto foreign leagues, which must be amongst the top five leagues. I saw some few players if we’re managed properly can blossom into proper national team materials in the next 1 or 2 years but the biggest worry is their true age.
Wow, NPFL actually has stadium like this ? this is so impressive, whenever i hear of Nigerian League, all i can think of is ADAMASINGBA STADIUM in Ibadan, OGBE STADIUM in Benin and The old ONIKAN STADIUM during STATIONERY STORE and JULIUS BERGER Era. I think things has really improved, the packaging can still be better though.
