The management of Mountain of Fire and Miracles Ministries Football Club of Lagos has refuted news making the rounds in the media claiming that our fans are
thugs after the match day 23 of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) clash against Shooting Stars Sports Club (3SC) of Ibadan decided at the Agege Township Stadium on Sunday.
MFM FC suffered a 1-0 home defeat in the hands of 3SC courtesy of an 82nd minute strike by Ebitmi Agogo who benefited from a quick counter attack and slotted home past goal keeper, Abayomi Folarin almost immediately after teenage striker, Stephen Odey was brought down in the visitors box for what was obviously a penalty.
Tempers flared with football fans protesting the referees decision in the stands. They however showed maturity by not attacking anyone, including the match officials as everyone went home peacefully. The game resumed a few minutes later and 3SC held on to record an away win.
MFM FC travels to Akure to play Sunshine Stars this weekend.
