THE GOAL SCORER'S CHART AFTER WEEK 11[/i]


Azuist: The NPFL is up and running and some players already have stated their intent in clinching the much cherished "highest goal scorers award".
I've gone through many sites looking for scorers table but have found none. Consequently, I decided to go through match day reports from match day 1 to date in different sites like mtnfootball.com, kickoffnigeria.com, goal.com, etc so as to come up with something. the accuracy of this work is put at 80 - 90% and its subject to addition and subtraction (correction). Common guys, lets encourage this work.
We are already in the 11th week.

Gwar surprised at hat-trick


Enyimba striker Sibi Gwar says he was expecting to score against Kano Pillars on Sunday, but did not quite expect to get a hat-trick.

The striker has returned from a minor injury and plundered three against the champions and log leaders on Sunday to help Enyimba claim all three points

“I thank God for yesterday. Before the match, I knew I would score,” Gwar told KickOffNigeria.com. “I just didn't know it was going to be a hat-trick.”

Having announced his return so spectacularly, the forward is keen to add to his tally, but says he is setting no targets, yet.

“Scoring goals is my job. If I don't score, I feel bad because it means I am not doing my job. So I want to score more goals.

“I had a little problem with my leg, but I am back now and I just want to keep scoring goals.

“I don't have any targets yet. But by mid-season, when I know what my future will be, I can say for sure.”

Na so league be o; you loose some, you win some. I am not really sure if it was the injury problem facing the team that is affecting their performance or not, which is wjat I am still trying to find out though. Nevertheless, that is fotball for you. I think Hearland should no be leading the table; congratulations to them.

Akor seals win for Heartland

Isah Akor was once again amongst the goal scorer’s as Heartland recorded a 2-1 win at home against a resilient Akwa United in their NPFL Week 11 encounter on Sunday.

Ebere Odiche put Heartland ahead after 13 minutes to send the small crowd at the Dan Anyiam Stadium into ecstasy, but Akwa responded almost instantly with an equalizer from John Aguda two minutes later.

CLICK HERE for the League table

Akor grabbed his seventh goal of the season in to 28th minute which eventually helped seal the win for Heartland, as no further goals were scored by either side.

Heartland who have been impressive at home this season have had found it hard to get points on the road.

The Naze Millionaires will travel to Ibadan to Shooting Stars who held Sharks FC to a goalless draw to get their first point away this season.

Heartland beat 3SC to break jinx

Heartland FC beat Shooting Stars 2-0 in an NPFL Week 12 game to record their first away win in four years.

The Naze Millionaires signalled their intention to cart away all three points on offer when Jolly Osas put them in the lead as early as the 3rd minute.

The Owerri-based club took their advantage into the break as their hosts failed to get an equaliser with Gbolahan Salami guilty of fluffing several begging chances.

Heartland put the game beyond the visitors when Ebere Odiche scored in the 68th minute to seal the impressive away win signalling the end of a four-year jinx.

Shooting Stars had picked their first point on the road last Sunday, after holding Sharks FC to a goalless draw in Port Harcourt.

•The Tale of A White Lion.

City of David Utd Football club are based in Lagos and feature in the Nigeria National League(NNL).

The 'White Lion' first had a feel of the Nigeria National League a season a go but had to wait till the last day of the abridge league of 2011/2012 to know their status.

A team that has taught football clubs in Nigeria how to
do things the right way even in a harsh economy, a team that has ignored the negatives and excuses but focused on the positives.

In their first season in the second tier league in the country, they showed their intent right from the blast but fizzled out in the later stage of season waiting till the last day of the season to know where they'll feature the next season. They got to the semi final stage of the 2012 Lagos state federation cup losing out on penalties to non league side Fame FC.

This current season the White Lion exhibited the experience they gathered the previous season and right from the blast again, they were always amongst the top four in group B of the Nigeria National League.

Just like they did last season giving out a motor cycle "okada" and other prizes to their fans during their home games, this year is filled with much fun as fans made sure they see their beloved club, COD Utd play at the Onikan Stadium, cheer the team to victory and win something.

So far COD Utd have since assumed a position of doing things the right way. They've got a functioning junior team which has produced the likes of Ismaila Podoh, a 15years old SS2 student and the youngest player to ever feature in the Nigeria National league (NNL).

Gaining promotion to the Apex league in Nigeria (NPFL) has always been their target but again the club that is gradually building a strong supporters base might say good bye to promotion ticket and focus on keeping their status intact in the NNL even as they are yet to pick a point on the road this season.

The Current champion of Lagos State Federation Cup will also feature in the Nationals (Federation Cup) in 2013 for the first time and their first battle against a lower league side Lokoja FC who were crowed champions of Kogi State last year succumb to roaring of the White Lion from Lagos .

Within the last two years the likes of Samuel Abimbola, Olabode Awakan have done their bit with the team but they've since been shown the exit door and their current coach, Austin 'Cerezo' Eguavoen who said he's happy to join COD Utd because of the structure they have in place will have a tough task of making a positive impact in the 2013 Federation Cup and keeping their status intact in the Nigeria National League.

COD Utd have since changed status from table toppers to mid table team. The big question is, will they repeat the relegation battle of last season after having a feel of how the top of the log looks like or will they make difference with less than five matches to go in the league?

The Nigeria Professional Football League #NPFL official transfer window opened on the 17th of June however the league will resume on the 3rd of July.

So far the NPFL has recorded 10 away wins this season with Kano Pillars and Kwara Utd winning twice on the road. The likes of Nasarawa Utd,Nembe City,ABS FC, Rangers Int'l,Heartland and Warri Wolves have all won on away ground. Both ABS and Nembe City have alsolost twice at home while Heartland, Wikki Tourist, Sharks,Lobi Stars,Kwara Utd and 3SC have all lost at home this term.

380 goals has been scored so far with 32 draws recorded that means we had 144 home wins as well. With Rangers hosting 3SC of Ibadan at the Nnamdi Akiwe stadium Enugu today in a rescheduled match the goals might increase or probably the away win or home loss might as well increase .
