NPFL: Ilechukwu remains optimistic after Rangers’ first home defeat

Enugu Rangers have suffered their first home defeat of the 2024/25 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) season.

Four first half goals from Kano Pillars, courtesy of two penalty kicks from Rabiu Ali, Zulkifilu Muhammed, and Ahmed Musa on the dot of halftime.

Enugu Rangers almost staged a remarkable comeback in the second half when they scored three goals—a brace from Isaac Saviour and Silas Nenrot in the 90th minute—but it was not enough to salvage a draw.
