Kano Pillars 0-5 Pompey


Peter Crouch scored twice as Pompey trounced Kano Pillars 5-0 at the Abuja Stadium.

John Utaka, Ben Sahar and Kanu added the others in a comfortable win over the Nigerian Premier League champions.

Pompey could have had plenty more with Pedro Mendes hitting the post and Jermain Defoe twice going close.

Pompey’s dominance was total and Mendes almost made it five, bending a shot against an upright, while Defoe and Kranjcar had efforts kept out.

And in the closing minutes Pompey’s fifth goal arrived when CROUCH volleyed home Cranie’s cross.

Pompey: Ashdown; Primus (Lauren 46), Campbell (Pamarot 46), Distin (Traore 46), Babayaro (Hreidarsson 46); Cranie, Davis (Mendes 46), Diop (Mvuemba 46), Utaka (Kranjcar 46); Sahar (Defoe 46), Kanu (Crouch 46)

Kano Pillars: Theophilius Afelo (Omoregie Uwigbe 60); Alhaji Mohammed, Balarabe Alaye, Bala Mohammed, Abdullahi Abubakar, Abdulwaisu Showemimo (Moses Ogago 60), Ahmed Garba (Sulisu Suleiman 60), Solomon Okpako (Munzali Yusuf 60), Hillary Chukwu (Aminu Tahir 64), Shagari Mohammed, Habibu Yunusa
