Whether football or other sports, my stand out moment was when I realised that an incompetent cretin is running the Ministry of Sports

Because most of us are equally (or even worse) incompetent at what we do.
Otherwise how can this thread have nothing, zero on our national football league that had Rangers International of Enugu winning the trophy after decades in the wilderness?
Our incompetent president and his incompetent ministers adequately represent us.

Like the way he dey "hammer" his English

@robosky02, this is a good thread, however, when you say in 'Nigerian football' do you solely mean the National team?

Because if it's all I encompassing, I'm pretty sure Enugu Rangers winning the NPFL for the first time in 30 or so years should count as one of the top moments in Nigerian football this year.

Also, the disappointing failure to qualify for AFCON 2017 was also quite a memorable moment. I think that was one of our lowest this year

Rangers win Nigerian title after 32 years:

Enugu Rangers emerged champions of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) after defeating El-Kanemi Warriors 4-0 at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium in Enugu on Sunday.

Chisom Egbuchulam scored a hat-trick and Osas Okoro got among the goals but their celebration was dampened by Ifeanyi Egwim's horrific injury at the death.

Three minutes into the game, Egbuchulam scored from the spot after Bobby Clement's shot at goal was blocked a hand in the El-Kanemi box.

That early goal set the tone for the rout as Osas Okoro netted the second on the stroke of half time to give Rangers a two-goal lead.

Egbuchulam then scored his 14th and 16th goals of the season in the second half to wrap up the game.

As for Egwim, he had came off the bench and copped a terrible injury in what appeared to be a slip though El-Kanemi goalkeeper Kazeem Yekeen was sent off and the hosts were awarded a spot kick which Egbuchulam dispatched.

The Flying Antelopes finished the season with 63 points to claim a seventh title but their first in 32 years since winning the Old First Division in 1984.

Rivers United and Wikki Tourists finished in second and third respectively after wins over Akwa United and Sunshine Stars.

Akwa United fell 1-2 at home to Rivers United. Frederick Obomate and Guy Kuemian scored for Rivers United with Fortune Omoniwari's goal for Akwa United sandwiched in between those strikes. The win ensured that Rivers United will play in the Caf Champions League in 2017.

The Tourists scored twice in the half hour of their game to see off any kind of resistance from Sunshine Stars. Chukwudi Samuel and Mubarak Umar scored the goals to help Wikki finish third and win a place in next year's Caf Confederation Cup.

However, at the deep end of the table, Warri Wolves join Ikorodu United as those relegated this season while the game between Plateau United and Heartland did not finish as the score stood at 1-1 as at the 75th minute.

MFM FC pulled off a 1-0 win over FC Ifeanyiubah to ease their relegation worries. Stanley Okorom fired in the winner 23 minutes into the game but both teams had players sent off. MFM's Ifeanyi Ifeanyi was given the marching order on 33 minutes while FC Ifeanyiubah's Kojo Baah saw red on 74 minutes.

The two dead-rubber games of the final matchweek produced four goals. Sunday Alimi and Yaya Kone Soumaila scored for Lobi as they won 2-0 against Nasarawa United while Ifeanyi Okoye's late goal helped Niger Tornadoes earn their only away point this term in a 1-1 draw at Kano Pillars. Adamu Mohammed scored for Pillars in the first half.
