NPFL Referee receives blow from MFM fan after Rangers draw

NPFL Referee receives blow from MFM fan after Rangers draw

The Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) matchday 26 fixture between Mountain of Fire and Miracles Football Club (MFM) FC and Enugu Rangers International on Sunday, May 1, 2022 descended into chaos.

MFM fans were not happy with the result and blamed the match official for the frustrating result.

The match official was attacked after the game as the Stadium became restless with the outcome.

This is not a new occurrence in the NPFL as violence is often what fans resort to when fans are not happy with the result.

The blow then resulted into a fracas on the pitch as the Nigeria Police Force (NPF) present at the stadium had to interfere.

In a related development, Kwara United suffered a 2-1 loss to Rivers United at State Stadium in Ilorin.

The fans were also not happy with the result which resulted in Rivers United reportedly being held hostage
