The Nigerian Professional Football League (NPFL) witnessed shocking scenes as Shooting Stars’ goalkeeping coach, Dosu John, was punched into a coma during a heated altercation with Niger Tornadoes’ coaching staff.
Reports indicate that the incident occurred after Dosu prevented Tornadoes’ coach from getting too close to the Shooting Stars’ goalpost area. This led to a confrontation that quickly escalated, resulting in Dosu being struck in the face and losing consciousness.
The violent clash has sparked outrage among fans and stakeholders, further highlighting the ongoing disciplinary concerns in the NPFL. Authorities are expected to investigate the incident and take necessary actions to prevent such occurrences in the future.
As Dosu John receives medical attention, the league’s management will be under pressure to ensure swift and firm disciplinary measures against those involved in the attack.
