Enyimba FC’s merciless display in their 5-0 thrashing of Kano Pillars in Aba has been praised by Finidi George.
Joseph Atule’s brace, along with goals from Alade Muyiwa, Chijioke Mbaoma, and Eze Ekwutoziam, handed Kano Pillars their worst league loss since a 5-0 loss to Julius Berger in April 2002.
He acknowledged Atule’s valiant efforts but stated that the team’s goal going forward will be to score points away from home, beginning with the trip to Lafia to play Lobi Stars.
