Ahead of the game, Olanrewaju emphasized the importance of continuing to work hard and stay focused, acknowledging that the upcoming match will be a crucial test for the team.

Dimeji Lawal Is Confident In Shooting Stars
Shooting Stars General Manager Dimeji Lawal expressed confidence in the team’s ability to deliver improved performances in the future.
Following a hard-fought 1-1 draw against Plateau United in Ibadan, Lawal assured the club’s supporters that they can expect to see a stronger and more competitive team as the season progresses.

Kabiru Dogo Faults Officials
Nasarawa United head coach, Kabiru Dogo, raised concerns about the performance of match officials during the team’s recent goalless draw against Niger Tornadoes.
Dogo said his team’s goal was wrongfully disallowed by the referee, expressing disappointment with the outcome.
“Congratulations to both teams, at least we shared the points, even though right inside me, I won the game,” Dogo told Nasarawa United Media.
“However, we take it in good faith. Only the referee can explain why he canceled that goal. He was closer to the ball than me, so, he has the final decision in this circumstance.
“Generally, both sides played good football this evening.
“I have a promising side. I believe so much in them, and with time, we will do better.”
