Dolphins wreck Kano Pillars hopes
Dolphins all but extinguished Kano Pillars title hopes with a 1-1 draw in Kano on Saturday. 

Frustrated Pillars fans went berserk after the game, attacking Dolphins players and officials and holding them hostage.

Enyimba's victory at Ranchers Bees on Thursday meant that Pillars needed to win to return to the top of the log, but Dolphins were in no mood to play ball, literally.

Ghanaian Owusu Addae put the visitors in front after 37 minutes, worsening the home team's already jangling nerves.

It took until deep into second half stoppage time, and after a pitch invasion lasting nearly 20 minutes, before Ahmed Musa converted a penalty.

The goal was clocked at 97 minutes.

Enyimba, who are one point clear with two games in hand, play Gateway in Abeokuta on Sunday.

We're a backward bunch of idiots! Its no wonder we remain a joke to the rest of the world. Why would anybody decide that invading the pitch and doing harm to the referee and opposing players would solve anything? Just never seize to amaze me

ALIKO DANGOTE wants to buy Arsenal
Published: May 23, 2010
A billionaire Nigerian tycoon is planning to enter the race to snap up a 16% stake in Arsenal.

Aliko Dangote - one of Africa's richest men - is said to have registered his interest in the shareholding being sold by the club's fourth largest investor Lady Nina Bracewell-Smith.

Mr Dangote is reportedly a passionate football fan and has the wealth to go head-to-head with the two big Arsenal investors, American sports entrepreneur Stan Kroenke and Russian oligarch Alisher Usmanov.

Finance house Blackstone is now thought to have placed him on the shortlist to buy the Arsenal stake.

Lady Bracewell-Smith is said to be seeking £160million for her stake after putting it on the sale block earlier this year
