Kwara Utd plan revenge mission against Tornadoes in NPFL encounter

Head Coach of Kwara United FC of Ilorin, Tunde Sanni, has asked the management of Niger Tornadoes FC of Minna, to expect a revenge just like they did to Rangers International FC of Enugu at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium, during their Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) matchday 20 encounter.

Sanni told the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) on Tuesday in Ilorin that the 2-0 triumph over Enyimba International FC of Aba on Monday in a rescheduled matchday 16 would boost the morale of the players ahead of the matchday 21 encounter at the Bako Kontagora stadium, Minna.

NAN recalls that Kwara United lost her first match of the 2024/2025 NPFL season to Niger Tornadoes when the Ikon Allah Boys ran away with a famous 2-1 victory on matchday 2 in Ilorin.

“I love the way Niger Tornadoes went on a revenge mission to Enugu. We are also going there; they should be expecting us.

“We are going to show them the way they showed us here; we are going there to play. With the victory over Enyimba, we are sure to play well against them,” Sanni said.

Sanni, who regretted his team’s poor start to the season, said that they were aiming to finish the season strongly.

According to him, Ibrahim Muhammed, the team’s best player for last season who has been injured for most part of the season will soon join his teammates on the field.

“Abdulafeez Musa (Olororo), who sustained an injury after a few games into the season, is recovering fast and will soon join his teammates.”

NAN recalls that Kwara United moved from the 14th position on the log to 11th after the victory over Enyimba on Monday in Ilorin. (NAN)
