Niger Tornadoes: Form and Statistics

Niger Tornadoes lost 2-0 to Kwara United in their NPFL Matchday 16 clash in Ilorin. Two first-half goals sealed the loss, leaving the Ikon Allah Boys with another away defeat. Kwara United started strong, creating pressure for an early goal. Their efforts paid off in the 15th minute when Bright Babatunde scored with a brilliant curled shot. The Tornadoes struggled to find rhythm, worsened by injuries to Terdoo Shimagande and Sabiu Ibrahim, both forced off before halftime. Kwara United doubled their lead in the 37th minute with an own goal from Abba Khalid after a long throw-in. The second half saw no further goals. Despite making changes, the Tornadoes couldn't break down a solid Kwara defense. Head coach Majin Mohammed said the loss was due to an off-day for his team. On Matchday 15, the Tornadoes beat defending champions Remo Stars 1-0 at home. Clinton Jephta scored the only goal, reacting quickly to a loose ball in the box. With Shimagande unavailable, Sarki Ismaila led the attack, supported by Abdulrasheed Shehu Dabai’s pace, though they couldn’t add to their early lead.
