The below pictures show some of the challenges Nigerian Footballers face in the Nigeria Professional League.

Little wonder why Nigerians are carried away by foreign leagues like the English Premier League, Spanish La Liga, Italian Serie A etc. Even the Players playing in our local leagues are fixated on transferring to a foreign league, especially one in Europe.

With proper funding from Government and the Private sector, hopefully the Nigeria Professional League will be loved by Nigerians and also foreigners.

It's a pity...

This is bad press.

Nigeria isn't the only country where torrential rains disrupts sports schedule due to the inability to deploy state of the art facilities. Even in Europe, many countries suffer the same fate. Not all countries are wealthy like UK, Germany, Spain etc. And even in these countries, when you go down their leagues to the 3rd and 4th tier, you meet facilities like ours which are easily affected by weather conditions.

If Nigeria is not as rich as the UK, how do you expect our facilities to meet their standards?

The NPFL can improve a whole lot but not with cheap and needless attack as this.

Modified (4-8-2017): See a Russian league game from 2 years' ago.

From the gate man to the nbr one man in every dept in the sports ministry is corrupt to the teeth this what you get

Lol....No be small thing o.


Our over aged players.


We'd get it right someday sha.

The struggle is real

.Nigerian professional league managers no dey hear

Since you know the pitch will be waterlogged why not start the season during dry season

We don't have standard pitches in Nigeria to start playing match during raining season

This is the season Nigeria league doesn't grow low turn out of fans bcus rain might probably beat the hell out of you

After they will be blaming us for abandoning our league and watching foreign leagues matches

It was a rainy day

Players play on waterlogged pitches elsewhere.

Snow too.

OP is ignorant to the realities of the world.

Hmmmm.. Its well.
