Rivers United Harness Iheanacho’s Celtic Magic for NPFL Final-Day Push
With one week to go before the NPFL title decider, Rivers United assistant coach Yemi “Yema” Olanrewaju is leaning on the dramatic Scottish title win of Kelechi Iheanacho to boost his players’ belief. Trailing Enugu Rangers by a single point, Rivers United must beat Katsina United in Port Harcourt and hope Rangers drop points against Ikorodu City in Lagos to snatch the league crown. After Iheanacho’s dramatic last-day heroics for Celtic, Yema’s public message—“I tap into your grace in one week’s time”—has set a motivational tone for training. Now the Pride of Rivers need both a home win and a bit of Lagos luck to complete their own football miracle.
