“Against Niger Tornadoes, our fans should expect good football and a good result. I know playing away from home is not really easy.
“I know we are going to Kaduna and the pitch is not really good. But it is not an excuse. I believe we will just go there and give our best to see if we can get a point. It is very possible for us to get something,” he said.
Sporting Lagos who are currently on the 12th position on the league table have three away draws out of twelve away matches.
Their away draws came in the 0-0 draw against Akwa United in week 2, 1-1 draw with Abia Warriors in week 12 and the 0-0 draw at Doma United in week 23.
