Ayooluwa Loan Spill To Delta Force FC


Ayooluwa who went on loan to Delta Force FC on August this year said; “I appreciate the League Management Company (LMC) and all those associated with the mandate of organizing the top-flight football, for the wonderful job they are exhibiting. The quality of officiating in the league has improved immensely and is commendable; and has given rise to the increase in away-wins results recorded by the league at the moment. He added, recall that Delta Force on Match Day 5 recorded a 1-3 home defeat in Asaba to Plateau United FC, and one or more away-wins is being recorded in almost every match day currently”.

Isreal Adetola Ayooluwa concluded by saying “I believe there has been a massive upgrade in the level of officiating currently. The match officials have upped their game and that have positively influenced the league”. “We lost a game at home last week, and just won our match now away from home, and that is how it should be. Home teams no longer win matches at the mercy of referees and that is how it should be. Now, teams match results are based on their respective efforts which is a good thing for Nigeria football league”.
