Caf Champions League: Kano Pillars win friendly ahead of Kotoko clash

Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) side Kano Pillars on Sunday intensified their preparations for next weekend’s Caf Champions League tie against Asante Kotoko with another friendly.

Coach Ibrahim Musa’s men thrashed local side Soso FC 3-0 at the Ahmadu Bello Stadium to round off their first phase of preparations in Kaduna ahead of Saturday’s first leg qualification tie.

Goals from captain Rabiu Ali, David Ebuka and Ifeanyi Nweke secured the second win in as many games for Pillars, who are still basking in the euphoria of their first cup triumph after years of disappointment.
