Published: March 22, 2015
Kano Pillars have shot themselves in the foot after losing 4 - 0 to Moghreb Tetouan in the first leg of their first round Champions League tie.
Going into the game at Stade Saniat Rme, the Nigeria champions were without the services of two of their feared strikers, Gambo Mohammed, who was shot during a robbery incident, and wantaway Nigeria B international Christian Obiozor.
Morocco international Mouhcine Iajour helped himself to a 21 - minute hat - trick, with his first goal coming in the 14th minute before giving the home team a two - goal cushion before the half - hour mark.
Kano Pillars have failed to qualify for the group stage of the CAF Champions League in their last two attempts, and that statistic may not be erased in the third time of asking.
The second leg comes up at the Sani Abacha Stadium in two weeks time.
