How Kano Pillars Teenage Sensation Abdullahi Scored Five Goals In One Game

In a Nigerian Premier Football League (NPFL) away game against Gombe United on Sunday, teenage sensation Yusuf Abdullahi of Kano Pillars achieved a remarkable feat by scoring five goals.

Abdullahi, who had been elevated from the youth team to the senior squad ahead of the 2023-2024 season due to the club’s temporary ban on signing new players, showcased an outstanding performance. In response to the young player’s impressive display, the Technical Adviser of Kano Pillars, Abdullahi Maikaba, expressed the belief that Abdullahi’s stellar performance warranted a call-up to the Nigerian youth team.

“My happiness is that one of the brilliant talents that is coming up in Nigeria has scored all the five goals. It is a wonderful day for Kano pillars, me, and my team,” Maikaba said.

“I have been telling him that the first goal is the key. If he can get his first goal, it will motivate him to score more. I am happy that his first goal geared him up to get four more in just one match.”
