NPFL Discussion Thread --2021/2022 winner- Rivers United!!!

[Maestro75]

I will like to watch this match, is there any channel on DSTV this can be possible?

Most NPFL matches end in one controversy or the other. The organisers will not be proud to show most of them especially in states where they know fans are known to be beating up referees and match officials. No wonder some people call our league the Nigeria Katakata league. Expect atleast one problem every match week and reports of how a club beat up referee. For Heartland and MFM match, am supporting the Nazi millionaires to beat MFM which have not been performing well this season. That is the only match I can predict there.

Enugu Rangers 5 - 3 Lobi Stars
Heartland Owerri 0 - 0 MFM FC

For Heartland and MFM match, am supporting the Nazi millionaires to beat MFM which have not been performing well this season. That is the only match I can predict there.

Both clubs played no goal match, I was thinking most likely the match will result to draw because both clubs are not good this season, just that Heartland is having 3 points ahead of MFM but both clubs are on the relegation zone and likely they might relegate if there is no changes.

Rivers United vs Akwa United. It’s just 18 minutes played, Rivers United have scored 2 goals, absolute brilliance from Rafiu and Akuneto. Rivers United keep winning games. If they keep up the form they are going to win this season. There is still 19 games in the season. Rivers United is looking unstoppable this season.

Heartland Owerri 0 - 0 MFM FC

I will not lie to you, that Heartland game with MFM disappointed me. I expected Heartland to beat MFM and not the eyeglass scoreline they gave the state. The match was a very boring one, no flash of entertainment whatsoever. That type of match would discourage spectators from watching the same clubs play next time. With that opportunity of picking 3 maximum point from that match lost, it is likely to hurt Heartland in the end and send it to relegation because Heartland needs to win all home matches and pick some draws away to escape relegation.

Rivers United are playing good, out of the 19 matches played this season, only 1 loss which was away match for Rivers United and six draw. Out of 10 home matches, Rivers United did not lose or draw any, the club won all the whole 10 matches, picking the club to win was not a mistake and likely the league will be won by the club this season.

I will not lie to you, that Heartland game with MFM disappointed me.

The clubs are both not good this season, that should not disappoint you. Try check the league table to see what I am talking about. Or probably you are from Imo state, I am just guessing.

Rivers United - Akwa United ended 4-1. Rivers United scored four goals in the first half. I don't understand why Akwa United coach decided to sit his star players on the bench.  How did he expect to win against Rivers United. I think the new coach doesn't want to use the old players, he wants to use the younger players.  That game plan didn't work for them today

Sad news coming from the female football league clubs as there just lost one of the female Queen, sunshine queens just lost one of their goalkeeper Elizabeth Johnson,  one of the clubs goalkeepers, she was confirmed dead on the way to the hospital from the training ground.

sunshine Queen RIP

The result of Enyemba - Wikki Tourists although goalless has a lot of consequences for Finidi George as a manager,  he has been working on a very tight rope, the last seven matches have not been good, just one win in eight matches. For a club like Enyemba ranking 9th on the table on match day 19...I  won't be surprised if he is sacked by the end of the season.

Rivers United performed very well to have scored 4 goals in the first half was a nice one, rivers United is a strong team that always make good performance so I don't really know if the reason akwa United didn't perform well is because of the old players that didn't participate in the game.

Yesterday game was a case of Rivers United showing class. The real difference between both sides was Rivers United was playing pressing football. Their counter attack game was strong yesterday. Akwa United defense line could not hold their position. The performance of Rivers United has been superlative. Its been a poor result for  Akwa United this season

It was a massive win, even if the coach used the old players, likely this will also happen, Rivers United are very strong at home, I will find it hard to believe there would be a club that will be able to win this club at home, even draw has not been possible this season, I can still doubt Rivers United away matches but home matches is over 90% guaranteed that the club would win.

May her soul rest in peace. Such a sad moment for her family and the women football teams.

The consequences is not only for Finidi George and his coaching crew. There is also consequences for Wikki Tourists for beating up Enyimba FC players for sharing the points with them. I do not know when all these beating by away teams will stop. The league organisers need to do something and put heavy fines and penalty of either banishment or point deductions on this. Otherwise what Wikki Tourists FC will encounter in Aba will not be something pleasant. Already Enyimba fans have started threatening to beat up Wikki players when they come for the return leg in Aba next two weeks. It will be bloody if no sanction is imposed on Wikki Tourists before then.

I did not read it on the news. If this is true then it is a shame that the club and their fans do not share the spirit of sportsmanship. Their actions was uncalled for and will cause retaliation from other state clubs. Football as a sport isn't perfect anywhere in the world, I know for a fact that fans in international leagues sometimes make racist slurs at players. The club addresses the matter immediately, Wikki Tourists should do the needful and first make a formal apology to Eyimba fc

[SatoPrincess]

The race for the trophy is between Rivers United and Plateau United. One can say that no one else can win this league this season outside these two teams. Rivers United are looking a little better than Plateau United, they have more experience as champions of the NPFL. It’s a pity that former NPFL giants Enyimba FC and Kano pillars have been reduced to clubs that go to regulation zone.

National news no deh like carry this type of yawa events because na big shame to 9ja. But if you get media handles of this local teams or independent journalists to follow na him better pass for real gist behind the scene. National papers are only forced to carry the news once e result say person die for the wahala. If Wikki Tourists like make them no go beg NLC to sanction them before the return leg for Aba, na them go collect the beating on top the matter weh their fans cause.

Jay Jay Okocha had skills that would make Ronaldinho jealous, and Nwakwo Kano aka Papilo was one of the best players Arsenal ever had. These two players made me love inlove with football.

Jay Jay Okocha and Papilo remains the two most selfish Nigerian internationals of this age. I know you people will not like what I have said. They were great during their playing days on the pitch. But since they left active football, nothing has been heard about them in regards to football. They should have taken to coaching or found their way into football administration whether in Nigeria or anywhere else. But they are no where to be found on that. They want to die with their talents without passing it on to anyone. That is selfishness.

Forget those two. Both of them only care about their pocket not the welfare of anybody. The only business Jay Jay Okocha manage to bring for us is betting nothing again. Although Papilo has an academy of footballers in Imo State.
The way our ex-Super Eagles players are after money is very tiring. Should I say they didn't pay them well during their football time or did they misuse their opportunities?

[Pokapoka124]

The much awaited fixture Ghana - Nigeria is tomorrow. This is a very tough fixture. Super Eagles are pretty much strong. Every other department seem sorted out. We need to control the midfield, Ndidi is going to be absent in tomorrow's fixture. We will have to find a way to manuever our way out of the jungle.

We can agree they were both incredible on the football pitch. Their political views is different from their skill

[Maestro75]

The much awaited fixture Ghana - Nigeria is tomorrow. This is a very tough fixture.

Me too I can not wait for it. It is going to be 8:30pm Nigeria time today. I want to see how that so much noise about Ghana voodoo will be defeated today on the pitch of play in Kumasi. We are going to miss Wilfred Ndidi in the midfield and I pray it does not affect our chances to bring Ghana down and show them we are the superior team.

Their political views is different from their skill

Their political view is ruled by greed. Okocha and Kanu have to be looking at Eto and Weah and what they are doing for their countries. It is a shame for both of them and the way they sold their personalities for cash.

Am happy Wikki Tourists did not get away with their hooliganism against Enyimba FC of Aba in their match 19 encounter where fans of Wikki attacked Enyimba players in Bauchi at the northern club home ground. The League Management Company LMC has banished Wikki to Kaduna and all their matches will be played behind closed doors with a suspended 3 points deduction and a fine of N4 million. I think the 3 point deduction is small. Something like 10 points would have been okay. This sanction will save Wikki Tourists FC players the severe beating they would be receiving in Aba on April 3 for the second leg fixture because of reprisal attack. Now fans will respect themselves. This sanction came at a good time.

After playing a no goal match in Ghana, we all thought Nigeria can win the second match, it was a hard match, Ghana was leading but Nigeria had penalty which was scored by William Troost-Ekon.
