Kano Pillars new recruit Christian Obiozor was over the moon after netting on his official debut for the Nigeria Professional Football League back - to - back champions in their 2 - 0 win over Dolphins in the Super 6.

But the Nigeria international showed his humility by refusing to take the credit alone for his first half strike .

Speaking to allnigeriasoccer.com just before the Kano Pillars team went for dinner, Obiozor said : “I am excited to score and I give God the glory.

“I also want to thank my teammates, especially Rabiu Ali, for giving me the assist. If not for him, I would not have scored.

“Thanks to Gambo Mohammed too. We all worked hard and I am confident that we will this competition. ”

Christian Obiozor signed a two - year deal with Kano Pillars in December, which ended his association with Enugu Rangers.

He was courted by Heartland, Enyimba, Warri Wolves and Dolphins in the close season.
