All eyes will be on the ABS Stadium, Kaduna, this Saturday, May 17, 2025, as Kada Warriors Football Club lock horns with Adamawa United in what promises to be a nail-biting season finale in the Nigeria National League (NNL). The stakes couldn’t be higher for the home side, who are battling for survival in the second-tier league.
Kada Warriors find themselves at the bottom of the table with 12 points, just one point adrift of their visitors, Adamawa United, who sit slightly above the relegation zone with 13 points. While a draw will be enough for Adamawa United to retain their NNL status, Kada Warriors must secure all three points to leapfrog their opponents and avoid the drop.
The significance of the match was underlined by the General Manager of Kada Warriors, Garba Lawal (MON), who described it as “crucial” and a “make-or-break” moment for the team. In a passionate appeal, he urged the players to give their all on the pitch and exhibit the fighting spirit required to secure a win.
“This is the most important match of the season,” Lawal said. “The boys must work extra hard, stay focused, and fight for every ball. The fans are behind them, the management is behind them, and now it’s time to deliver.”
Kada Warriors, who have had a turbulent campaign marked by inconsistency and injuries, will be counting on home advantage and fan support to spur them to victory. Meanwhile, Adamawa United, aware of the fine margins, are expected to adopt a cautious but disciplined approach to get the single point they need.
Kick-off is set for 3:00 PM at the ABS Stadium, with security and matchday logistics already in full preparation to accommodate the anticipated crowd.
As the 2024/2025 NNL season draws to a dramatic close, all roads lead to Kaduna for a clash where one team will celebrate survival, and the other may face the heartbreak of relegation.
