Sporting Lagos head coach Abdullahi Biffo has lamented the unfortunate relegation of his team from the Nigeria Premier Football League.
Biffo’s side were relegated from the NPFL following a 1-0 defeat to Shooting Stars on Sunday.
Christian Pyagbara grabbed the only goal of the game.
Biffo believed that the NPFL will miss the quality of Sporting Lagos in the league.
“It’s what it is, I always believe that in the game of football, you always get it right or get it wrong, the only thing I know for sure is that NPFL will miss the quality of Sporting Lagos in the league because their structure as a professional team is what we need to build our league,” he said in a post-match interview.
“The team has a good structure, they know what they are doing, it is their first time in the league and this will be a big lesson for all the management, players and coaching crew.”
Sporting Lagos ended their debut season in the top-flight in 17th position.
Gombe United, Heartland and Doma United are the other clubs who were from the NPFL.
