Niger Tornadoes head coach, Abdullahi Biffo is confident that his side can end Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries (MFM) FC unbeaten home record when they meet in a Match Day 17 of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) at the Agege Stadium this afternoon.The Olukoya Boys have remained invisible at home this season with only three draws against Kano Pillars, Rangers and Enyimba while the Minna-based side has yet to pick a point away from home.
But the young tactician remains hopeful that his boys can do the unthinkable by re-write the history on Sunday.
“We are here in Lagos for maximum three points. We know it is a difficult task but it is not unachievable. I know that we are playing a good side like MFM but I am confident that we can end their home unbeaten record on Sunday,” Biffo told Sportinglens.blospot.com“We were very close in our previous away games to get at least a point but we were very unlucky. We always conceded cheap late goals in our away matches. We hope to correct the situation against MFM,” he said.
Biffo was at the Agege Stadium on Friday to watch MFM training session which was fixed for between 12 noon and 2pm.
The former Giwa FC manager was able to see a little part of his opponents training before it was call-off at 1:44pm on noticing his presence at the stadium.
“I know the way MFM played before I watched their training session. I watched them during the Super Four and I have seen them on TV and I know that they are good side too.”
Players and officials of the club arrived Lagos on Friday and they are expected to train at the Agege Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
