Rangers Striker, Ifeanyi George And Two Other Players Killed In Tragic Car Crash

Rangers FC striker, Ifeanyi George has been confirmed dead after he was killed in a car crash on Sunday morning.

The 26-year-old former Enyimba star was travelling from Enugu to Lagos with two unidentified teammates when they ran into a heavy-duty truck along Benin-Ore road, with none of them surviving the ghastly accident.

Rangers team manager, Amobi Ezeaku confirmed the sad news to TheCable, saying: “It is a black Sunday in Nigerian football and sad to say the least.”
