Posted : 25 December 2023

City Football Club (FC) of Abuja defeated visiting Malumfashi FC of Kastina 1-0 in the ongoing 2023/2024 Nigeria National League (NNL).


The Group D match was played at the Area 10 old parade ground Football pitch in Abuja.

While Malumfashi FC played five matches and lost all, placing eighth on the log.

Despite the visitors' aggressive play, they could not equalize as the hosts held on tight at the rear.


Speaking after the match, Nnamdi Oriaku, the captain of City FC, said that he was happy with the scoreline.


"We had a good performance in the second half of the game, but Malumfashi FC's defense was tight, and we could not penetrate to add to our goal. Malumfashi FC is not a bad side; they came all out for us at the end of the game. We were able to secure the maximum three points at home,” he said.


"Our next match is against Jigawa Golden Stars FC in January 2024. The league is a marathon, and teams have to fight for points every time out. So, we will fight to have the maximum points in our next game,” he said.


"We will continue to improve as the league progresses because we have more matches ahead. We want our fans and supporters to continue to believe in us, and we are promising that before the league ends, we will definitely be at the top,” he said.


City FC will square up with Jigawa Golden Stars FC on Jan. 6, 2024, while Malumfashi FC will take on Sokoto United FC on Jan. 6, 2024.
