The Nigerian second-tier league will kick off on Saturday.

The Video Assistant Referee (VAR) has finally landed in Nigeria as it was tested in the Nigeria National League (NNL), preseason game in Katsina.

VAR was tested first time in History at Katsina State in Sarki Umar Farouq Stadium Daura at the Friendly Match between NLO side Junior Danburam and the Giant killers of Dutse, NNL Campaigners Jigawa Golden Stars on Friday.

NNL Season Kicks-Off Today In Lafia
The 2023-2024 NNL season will start today at the refurbished Lafia City Stadium between Nasarawa United and Zamfara United.

It will be recalled that Nasarawa United was among the four clubs from the NPFL that were relegated to the lower division at the end of the 2022/2023 season.

Meanwhile, only the match at the Lafia City Stadium will take place as all other Week One matches will be played on Saturday, November 18.

No it should not
We’ve definitely not reached that level

Nice 1 but wait first
How many cameras did we put in the stadiums to check blind spots

That's beautiful

Great development. Our home games may just be interesting to watch now.

The problem of NPFL is not VAR, will the center referee go home safe after using it? Na who they home they win game here

Nice one. I wish they had posted photos of the VAR room

That thing wey you dey find, you go see am

Story. They will deliberately not use it well.

Make them use am cancel kano pillars goal inside Kano stadium, that will be the end of VAR in Nigeria.

Even with bvas election got rigged talk more of var. Honestly speakin Nigeria cant let go of corruption

The VAR room is very dark. There was no light when this report was made, and diesel is very expensive, that's why they couldn't afford to show us the room.

This I have seen.

Var isnt the solution to the problem. In Nigeria today

If a country like England can't use VAR without corruption is it Nigeria that's known for corruption in every sector? Waste of resources.

I like watching replays of female sports and watching their ass and boobies shaking.

😂

Even in NPL that we have TV coverage,today and tomorrow is March Day 8 and we have had just 3 away wins in all.
How do we now monitor NNL that have no coverage at all.
Anyway,we wait and see.

Nigeria is always getting late to the show.

I pity the VAR officials,them no born them well to cancel dying minute winning or equalizer goal inside Kano pillars stadium.

After how many years
