Twenty-two goal attempts. Seven on target. Seventy percent ball possession. Six big saves by Niger Tornadoes goalkeeper Yusuf Mohammed. Those were the numbers that Enyimba churned out in their 1-1 draw at home against Niger Tornadoes on Wednesday. I am sure it would feel terrible for Enyimba fans that after […]
I’m still reeling from yesterday’s draw against Niger Tornadoes. The excitement and anticipation that filled the Enyimba International Stadium at 4pm was palpable, but the outcome left me feeling hollow. Ecclesiastes 7:14 echoes in my mind: “In the day of prosperity, rejoice. But in the day of adversity, consider.” Today, […]
Enyimba FC coach Olanrewaju Daniel Yemi says his team is aware of the danger Niger Tornadoes pose ahead of their NPFL Match Day 7 encounter on Wednesday. “Niger Tornadoes have struggled at home, but their away record is a different story altogether,” Yemi noted. “We’re aware of their tactics and […]
Top of the Morning, Enyimba Family! Another away game, another pleasant result. We start the week with another precious point in our coffers. The boys battled and earned a draw against Shooting Stars Sunday evening. Here are 4 things we learned as the Elephant proved too tough for the Oluwoye […]

A good morning this midweek!
Yes by now the CAF Confederation Cup draw for the group stage must have been well digested since it was made on Monday. Two Egyptian clubs, Zamalek and Al Masry, as well as Mozambican Cup holders, Associação Black Bulls, have been drawn alongside the People’s Elephant in Group D of the competition.
It’s unlikely that Enyimba fans have recovered from last Sunday’s trashing of Katsina United. Forget about the lights out at the Enyimba Stadium on Sunday night, the People’s Elephant have now climbed to second place on the standings of the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL). That’s as good as a […]
As the rain drizzled during the game, Katsina United was feeling alot worse. This was no drizzle – It was a downpour. That first half was scintillating – perhaps we’d need to check in with OptaNGR to find out when was the last time Enyimba was 3-0 and flying by […]
Well, yesterday was a rollercoaster, wasn’t it? A match that started in a burst but ended with a flicker—literally. We kicked things off in full gear, lighting up the field with three first-half goals before the lights decided to go AWOL. Typical Enyimba, keeping us on our toes in more […]
