I am disappointed that I scored a goal which was cancelled, ” says Christian Obiozor to <b>allnigeriasoccer.com</b>.<br /><br />“It happened in the sixth minute, the referee pointed to the center circle , it was his assistant that said no.<br /><br />“The officiating was not fair, I think they favoured the home team. Based on the first leg result, I think we are through to the next round.”<br /><br />Kano Pillars will jet into the country from South Sudan, where today’s game was played, on Monday.
