Isyaku Ibrahim
Sai Masu Gida as Pillars were called will this afternoon engage Niger Tornadoes of Minna in continuation of Nigeria’s top flight
The home team who last week lost their game against 3sc in Ibadan will not allowed their rivals to escape with even a point as the league is reaching its climax
Coach Usman Abdullah has to buckle up aimed at securing the vital points at stake although they will face stiff resistance from their opponents who were popularly known for springing surprise at away soils if their recent engagements were anything to go by
Historically matches involving Kano teams and Tornadoes since the olden days were usually dicey if one could recall the time of bald head late Yekini Salami who at that time captained the Minna side
The pressure will surely be on the host as the guests have nothing to loose
As we entered week eighteen in the league nobody could predict the outcome of the duel particularly at this time around that officiating has improved
Pillars will encounter much problem during the tie as they will play without their talisman Rabiu Ali Pele otherwise called Legend who received a national call from the Coaches of home based Super Eagles
But this reason did not holds water as there are players like Super Eagles Ahmed Musa. and his bossom friend Shehu and beside that other tested a promising stars that featured during their previous match against visiting Katsina United who can deliver in the absence of the attacking midfielder
As all eyes now leads to the venue which will be jam-packed by soccer lovers from far and wide we do hope enough security will be provided to guard against the eruption of any sad incident as it occurred during the past couple of weeks after the duel against Heartland and that of Katsina United
Certainly ,it was widely believed that the culprits were not real soccer lovers but disguised as football fans to perpetrate their evil deed
as Stadium should not be used as an umbilical cord of shedding blood or carting away with innocent citizens property
Although one may say the fracas happened after the matches but it started within the vicinity of the stadium
