2024/2025 NPFL Match Day 7: Kano Pillars stun sorry Rangers International FC at "The Cathedral"

Posted : 16 October 2024

Traveling Kano Pillars surprised everyone on Wednesday at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium, also known as "The Cathedral," with a 4-3 win over the defending league champions, Rangers International FC.


In the Match Day 7 encounter, the Flying Antelopes played second fiddle to the Sai Masu Gida side, who employed all their resources to secure the victory.


Super Eagles captain Ahmed Musa was the chief tormentor of the Flying Antelopes, being involved in all of Kano Pillars' goals.


Musa won a penalty in the 15th minute and then provided an assist in the 28th minute. He won another penalty in the 31st minute, after which he scored a solo goal in the 46th minute.


Ahmed Musa ran from midfield and beat four Rangers defenders to slot home his third goal of the season.


The first goal of the day was a beautifully taken penalty by Kano Pillars' veteran, Rabiu Ali, in the 15th minute of play.


Rabiu Ali scored his third goal of the season from the spot after a Rangers defender handled the ball inside the box from Ahmed Musa's cross.


Zulkifilu Muhammed extended the lead at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium in the 28th minute as Ahmed Musa beat his marker down the flank to set up Zulkifilu for his first goal of the season.


Ahmed Musa's name resonated again in the 37th minute when he earned a well-deserved penalty for Kano Pillars after being brought down in the box by a Rangers defender.


Rabiu Ali once again made no mistake, scoring from the spot for his fourth goal of the season.


Musa put the icing on the cake in the 46th minute with his deft pace from midfield, beating four Rangers International FC defenders to slot home his third goal of the season.


The Flying Antelopes, however, attempted a fightback by scoring three goals in response, with two goals from Isaac Saviour in the 46th and 59th minutes. In the dying moments of the match, Silas scored the last goal of the day in the 90th minute.
