2024/2025 NNL Match Day 5: Last minute Mohammed Musa’s penalty earns crucial point for Kebbi United against Adamawa United

Posted : 12 January 2025

The Pantami Stadium in Gombe witnessed a fiercely contested encounter on Matchday 5 of the Nigeria National League (NNL), as Adamawa United and Kebbi United FC played out a 1-1 draw on Friday evening.


Kebbi United goalkeeper Muhammad Musa emerged as the hero of the match with his last-minute penalty save, denying Adamawa United a crucial victory.


Adamawa United started brightly and took the lead in the 28th minute through a clinical finish by Abdulkadir Musa. The home side controlled the first half and went into the break with a 1-0 advantage.


Kebbi United came out stronger in the second half, with Gabriel Abutu scoring the equalizer in the 55th minute after capitalizing on a defensive lapse by Adamawa United. The match became an intense battle as both teams pushed for a winner.


The drama reached its peak in injury time when Adamawa United were awarded a penalty. The home crowd anticipated a late winner, but Kebbi United’s Muhammad Musa had other plans. His incredible save preserved the 1-1 scoreline, earning his side a valuable point and ensuring a share of the spoils.


With this result, both teams remain at the bottom of the NNL Conference D table, with Adamawa United in 6th place and Kebbi United in 7th. Both sides will be aiming to improve their standings in their Matchday 6 fixtures next weekend.


For Adamawa United, the missed penalty will be a bitter pill to swallow, while Kebbi United will take confidence from Musa’s heroics as they prepare for their next challenge.
