NPFL 25: Majin Mohammed Hails Niger Tornadoes’ Resilient Victory Over Akwa United
Majin Mohammed has praised his players following Niger Tornadoes’ hard-fought victory over Akwa United in their Match Day 11 NPFL match.
The win marked back-to-back home victories for the Ikon Allah Boys, helping them recover from a poor start to the season at home.
The match was decided by Papa Daniel’s free-kick two minutes into the second half, which secured all three points for Tornadoes against a struggling Akwa United side.
Mohammed acknowledged that the victory was not an easy one, given Akwa United’s position at the bottom of the table he noted that teams in such positions are often tough opponents, as they fight desperately to get back on track while other teams, like his own, aim to climb up the standings.
The result saw Niger Tornadoes rise three places to fourth on the NPFL table, marking a significant improvement in their standing. Mohammed’s team now looks ahead to their next encounter against El-Kanemi Warriors, where they will aim to continue their positive run and secure another favorable result.
Looking ahead, Mohammed is optimistic about his team’s prospects, emphasizing their focus on the upcoming challenge against El-Kanemi. He expressed confidence that they would approach the match with the same determination to earn a positive result, continuing their push for higher placement in the league.
