Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) side, Mountain of Fire and Miracles (MFM) FC became the latest casualty in the Federation Cup as they lost 1-0 against Katsina United FC, crashing out in the round of 32 of the competition.
Katsina United got the only through Ibrahim Suleiman in the 54th minute, to send the Olukoya Boys out of the competition in a dramatic fashion on Wednesday. Another NPFL side, Enugu Rangers FC defeated Abubakar Bukola Saraki FC 1-0 at the Abubakar Tafawa Balewa Stadium in Bauchi.
Defending champion, Akwa United scaled through Kwara United hurdles, as they defeated the Ilorin based-club with slim 1-0 victory to book their passage to the next round of the competition.
The competition is living to its billing, as giant killers’ competition. But MFM FC joined the likes of Kano Pillars and Niger Tornadoes, the two NPFL side that recently crashed of the tournament, after losing to Prime FC and Crown FC of Ogbomosho respectively.
