This behaviour is prevalent in grassroot football all over Nigeria.

That's ☝️ the link to the video of the penalty call that made Enyimba fans to walk out. Do you think it's penalty or not

Obaje was clearly pulled when he was through on goal. Rangers will be awarded three points due to the walkout.

The ref was correct on this decision.

Enyimba should be fined and made to apologise to NPFL refs.

ShadowMarking:
They must do something to spoil this good game. Something you don't regularly see outside is what you'll see here.
But it seems that referee played rangers to win lol.

did you watch the match?

xtivin:
how is that a penalty?

Referee need to be jailed

I don't blame the referee since the guy actually had his hands on the player that fell.

Chicagograduate:
That is why Nigerian referees are not selected for AFCON.Them go sell match like siasia.

Did you watch the match?

That was a clear penalty from the replay

Unbiased1:
Eyinmba should be fined for this. The way their players reacted after the penalty call made it look like they were cheated by the referee which prompted the fans to disrupt the game. Though I love this game. This is how Nigerians should always support our local football. Come out and fill-up the stadiums and cheer your favourite team.

but now fear won't allow people to come out and watch...people are showing interest now to watch Nigeria league...Enyimba should be find

princeisah26:
we tend to blame the government periodically for the current state of the country and get just a simple penalty decision by the official disrupted the match. to achieve the change we clamour for we must first change our mentality and behaviours as good citizens and law-abiding citizens.,

May God bless the day you came to this World,👍!
Nothing but the TRUTH.
We know government too have their Problems but she na everything na
government?
What about our ---Individuals lapses,Blame game, Greed and dishonesty and lack of integrity and Laziness?
God have Mercy upon Nigerians!

MajorOvakporaye:


Yes, Nzogbu football. That's the type of rubbish football we play in Akure, Oshogbo, Ile-Ife, Ekiti, Abeokuta, Iragbiji, and and the whole Osun and Ogun States. Mpama!!!

I was there in the stadium, if I had known this will be contentious, I would had shot a video of it.

The referee didn't even give the penalty until he confirmed with the linesman on the covered stand side of the pitch. It was the linesman that pointed to the spot before the referee blew and also pointed to the penalty spot, the lineman has an unobstructed view of the incident, while the referee was blindsided by two players.

The fracas started when an Enyinba player went over and punched the linesman who first pointed to the penalty spot before the referee blew it as a penalty.

People will be watching matches till forever, I was there in the stadium with minors, we will do it again next match.

I’m not concern about the fight or the referee… but honestly speaking I’m happy with the crowd… this is what we are praying for .. seeing this crowd in our local league..

We are getting there

ceevictor:


Watch the clip before concluding, what I saw on TV looks like a penality

That was a clear penalty

Is this the first match in Nigeria you have seen violence? Maybe you started watching football from this thread.

Naija league home team must win. Wetin cum be pk there now. Ref always take brib and spoil the games.

jmoore:

The point is the timing, not the penalty. The additional time has already elapsed before the penalty.

Remember Madrid Vs Bayern match

The people are always there to make things right but leadership/management is the problem. Merely looking at the game, no crowd control mechanism put in place.

In this kind of game, the reff should understand that he is like a mad man with a lighter in a gas station. Any little mistake gets everything burned down. The refs should learn to be tactical, read moods and smartly navigate situations.

If people refuses to come out to watch Nigerian leagues tomorrow because of this game, blame it on the ref/leadership. The people have tried their best as they always do.

We had over 200 stewards standing everywhere, police was there, I even greeted with a soldier when we were trying to fight our way into the stadium .

See how the match stewards in green were standing, just like European leagues.

People hate the truth, that's a clear penalty!!!

Nairalander248:
One of the reasons I stopped watching Nigerian league games... I nearly lost my life to stupid game I went to watch... It escalated into the city and shops of the visiting tribe in the city were looted and burned... Since then I hardly get interest in Nigerian league games...

was it Uyo...?
Enyimba vs Akwa United.

MaziObinnaokija:
like BITTER OBI. Elude ni e

Is bitter Obi playing the ball? You are bitter, sour and distasteful.

Do what exactly

If the ref said that it was a penalty, then it is. No other opinions are needed for whatever happened on the pitch.
I am highly disappointed that professional players still walk out on the match.
This has drawn Nigerian football 1000 steps backwards.

Aren't his OBIDIENTS miscreants disturbing the peaceful peacenonbyhe field? Anuofia

At least, more intest in Nigeria league but their problem is that away never win

My man it's not about the penalty it's about the time. They were given 5minutes in added time. But the referee allowed the match till 105 minutes that's was why the enyimba players walked out which led to the pitch invasion by their fans. They feel the referee had something with rangers😂😂

You people said Igbos have left Southeast due to insecurity but now that the fact shows the contrary you are now talking about football violence that happens everywhere.
