NPFL: Daniel Ogunmodede Says Kano Pillars Were Unlucky in Enyimba Draw

Kano Pillars technical adviser Daniel Ogunmodede believes his side deserved more from their Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) clash with Enyimba after the two teams played out a goalless draw on Sunday.

The Sai Masu Gida hosted Enyimba at the Sani Abacha Stadium in Kano but could not find a breakthrough, with both sides settling for a point after 90 minutes.

Ogunmodede felt Kano Pillars had a good opportunity to make their dominance count in the first half but admitted the difficult weather conditions affected his team’s performance after the break.

“We were extremely unlucky, we only played half of the game, the weather condition in the second half wasn’t favourable,” Ogunmodede told 54footballx.

“We didn’t play football in the second half, as we only tried to redeem our image and fight.

“We played against a team that were already wounded. Five matches without a win, we know our capabilities, and we were unlucky not to score in the first half.

“The second half was tense because of the weather. I need to give kudos to my players for the fight and resilience. Unfortunately, football happens. Congratulations to Enyimba for the point.”
