2023/2024 NPFL Match Day 19: Heartland FC Coach Christian Obi challenges players to fight for the maximum points

Posted : 21 January 2024

Heartland FC Technical Adviser, Christian Obi, has challenged his players to be vigilant about their responsibilities and strive to redouble their efforts to achieve a favorable result on Sunday against Kano Pillars in an NPFL Matchday 19 tie.


The firebrand Naze Millionaires scored two away goals in Kaduna but still ended up on the losing side to Niger Tornadoes recently in Kaduna due to some defensive errors. However, Obi counseled his players to put the loss behind them and concentrate on securing a win in Kano.


Obi, who lost his first game since the start of his second stint in charge of the team, wants the players to approach their weekend NPFL Match Day 19 tie with Kano Pillars with the seriousness and attention it requires to ensure the game ends positively.


"It was a fair performance from the boys, but they must sit up and try to be more focused for the entirety of the game.


"We scored two goals for the first time in an away game this season, but we committed some mistakes in defense and let in goals that we could have avoided," Obi said.


"The players just need to redouble their efforts and ensure they play with absolute focus.


"The game with Kano Pillars is a game we must win. We must go all out for it."


Meanwhile, Heartland FC defeated Global Sports FC of Nekede 4-0 in a tune-up game and have settled in Kano ahead of their game with Kano Pillars.


Although Sai Masu Gida have a slight edge over the Naze Millionaires in this fixture's head-to-head with six wins against four held by the Owerri side. The game has also produced three draws.
