IN continuation of the build-up towards the commencement
of the 2019/2020 Nigeria National League (NNL) season, Kwara United FC will
engage Sunshine Stars FC in a friendly football match on Sunday, at the
Main-Bowl of the Kwara State Stadium Complex, Ilorin.
This follows the postponement of the commencement of the
NNL, which was earlier scheduled to begin this weekend.
Also, their opponents for Sunday's friendly, Sunshine
Stars were free this weekend despite the commencement of the 2019/2020 Nigeria
Professional Football League (NPFL), following the postponement of their
fixture with Rangers International, who are involved in the CAF Confederation
Cup competition.
The Management of the Nigeria National League (NNL)
announced that it has extended the commencement of the 2019/2020 season by 21
days.
According to reports, the decision was taken after due
consultation with stakeholders to enable certain logistics to be ready for the
kick off.
The General Manager of Kwara United FC, Bashir Badawiy, while confirming the friendly
match, said that it will keep the team in tune, and also, wet the appetite of
Kwara football fans.
Badawiy said that apart from the Sunshine Stars'
encounter, other friendly matches are being lined up for the team, both at home
and away, to further strengthen the Coach Abdullahi Biffo-led team.
Kwara United FC is expected to host Gombe United FC in
Ilorin in Week One of the forthcoming NNL season.
