Ahmed Musa has praised the massive turnout of supporters following Sani Pillars' narrow victory over Barau FC in the Kano derby last Sunday.
The veteran striker, who grabbed the only goal in the 1-0 win at the Sani Abacha Stadium, singled out the fans as the driving force behind the result against the Maliya Boys.
"This victory belongs to you, the fans. The support you showed us gave us great strength on the field," Musa told NPFL news after the match.
Over 30,000 supporters packed the stadium to back Sani Pillars in the local derby, creating an atmosphere that clearly lifted the home side.
Musa's decisive strike in the 63rd minute proved enough to claim all three points and extend his tally for the season to four goals.
The win pushed Sani Pillars up to 15th place in the league standings with 35 points, offering some breathing room as the campaign continues.
Sani Pillars will travel to face Niger Tornadoes in Matchday 30 on March 15.
