Kano Pillars have alleged they were robbed of victory at league leaders, Wikki Tourists after the referee “manufactured three red cards and a penalty” against them.
Wikki came from a goal down in the first half to beat Kano Pillars 3-1 at home yesterday to stay top of the Nigeria league table.
However, Pillars spokesman Idris Malikawa told AfricanFootball.comhis team deserved to win this match but the referee from Niger State and his assistants combined to ensure they did not.
“They simply manufactured three red cards against us – to start with the foul that was penalised in the 48th minute was not committed by Jamiu Alimi, but Joel Djondang,” said Malikawa.
“Even the penalty against us for their second goal was not a penalty. The referee manufactured it.
