Niger Tornadoes head coach, Majin Mohammed, has praised the home fans for their massive support as his side defeated Bayelsa United 1-0 at the Bako Kontagora Stadium in Minna to end the visitors’ unbeaten streak.
The decisive moment came in the 27th minute when Ismaila Sarki rose highest to nod home Abba Khalid’s pinpoint cross, sealing victory for the Ikon Allah Boys in their first home game of the season.
Speaking after the match, Mohammed expressed gratitude to the supporters, describing their presence as the key motivating factor.
