PictureArthur Pen Dragon and Razor share a joke
The 1st PH City 8 Ball Pool League comes to an end on Wednesday, May 1, 2019 but the attention will be on Tuesday, April 30 as two top players go head to head against each other.
 
The much publicised and hyped match up between Arthur Pen Dragon and Razor finally takes place on Tuesday at V 10, 26 King Perekule Street after the initial date was rescheduled from March 27.
 
Both players have been on each other’s throats since the League began and finally, there may be a winner and loser.
 
Pen Dragon spits fire
 
Arthur Pen Dragon who currently sits on top the log, however says he is not consumed by the excitement surrounding the game.
 
“It is not like I do not have an interest in the game but I played a friendly game with him (Razor) and I noticed some good changes in the way he played,” Arthur Pen Dragon told Chinaacheru.com.
 
“Despite all the noise, Razor seems to be coming from behind so I will be careful. He is good but I am going to beat him.
 
“I want every body that is hiding to come out and watch the game. It is not a big deal. It is not a big game I just want to have fun. I am still going to beat him. I do not know how many zero but I will beat him. I cant tell the scores but I am still going to beat,” The dragon told ChinaAcheru.com.
 
He also denied any pressure going into the big match up.
 
“Pressure? How can I be under pressure? I am just going to have fun like I always do whenever I play snooker. I can only have pressure if the player is better than me but not Razor. Razor is middle class. He knows. I don’t see any big deal with people thinking the game is big, they are just hyping him not me. They are just trying to make him feel important.”

Razor needs the bragging rights
 
Razor on the other hand is looking forward to the game, but strictly for the bragging rights.
 
“I am looking forward to the game though not as much as the first time. Now it is about pride but then it was to put him down and give other people the belief that he can be taken out,” Razor told ChinaAcheru.com.
 
“He is well ahead on points so he will most likely win the league but the game is all about pride. I want to have some bragging rights too.”
 
Just like Arthur Pen Dragon, Razor adds that there was no pressure at all in this.
 
“Nah! No pressure. There is much less at stake this time than before. In the last couple of days I have played a few friendly games with him and he was probably shocked at how I played. There would be mutual respect and it will be a gentlemanly game this time.”

Mekusa as chief donor
 
In Monday’s games, Baka, using the Big Balls, beat Mekusa 3-0 and lost 2-1 to Mekusa with the Small Balls making it a total of 4-2 in favour of Baka over Mekusa
 
Pen Dragon, probably warming up for the big match up against Razor thrashed Mekusa 3-0 using the Small Balls.
 
Stevo Daminki vs Pen Dragon ended 4-2 in favour of the Dragon as he lost the Big Balls 2-1 to Stevo and won the Small Balls 3-0.

Zen Master got part of the bounty as he beat Mekusa 2-1.
 
Arthur Pen Dragon wins
 
At the top of the Leaderboard is Pen Dragon, Chief Marsh, Sammy Baka and Razor in top 5. the bottom rung has Gomboi, Western Dada, BigRon, Impresario and Aganaba JP. With the game rounding up, Pen Dragon would most likely take home the top prize on Wednesday.

There is a soaring spirit in the camp of the national badminton team as they prepare for the Africa Badminton Championships which comes up from April 22 -28th in Port Harcourt, Rivers State.

Eighteen countries already have registered for this year’s event which will see the top male and female badminton players slug it out for brilliance. The countries are: Algeria, Benin, Botswana, Congo, Congo DRC, Eritrea, Egypt, Ghana, Ivory Coast and Kenya.

Others are Mauritius, Seychelles, South Africa, Togo, Uganda, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Nigeria as the Host.

Team Nigeria athletes are camped at the High Performance Center in the University of Port Harcourt, Rivers State to get them fully ready for the championship.

“We have been camped here for the past three weeks, and the tournament starts in the next 18 days, I think from the look of things and what the players have displayed we are rightly and equally prepared for the tournament,”  assistant coach of the team, George Shitta told ChinaAcheru.com.

He confirmed that the team looked shaped and was indeed very optimistic of hosting and winning this year’s Africa Badminton Championship.

He also revealed that most of the players that represented the country in Algeria the last time out are still in the team and to him the composure of the players is even better now as compared to then. Nigeria finished in second place in Algeria and the coach believes they have the best team Nigeria can produce at this point in time.

“Yes they are the best. Before the names were published, all the players under
went  some trials. They played among themselves and the best 18 was selected from the 30 players in camp. 

The captain of the side Enajoh Abah, happy that the fitness level of his team mates has improved tremendously, believes “everybody is in top form and ready for the tournament”.
Abah’s dream is to see Team Nigeria as a team and then win the tournament.

“The f
irst is to play as a team so we can win the team events which is our priority, before the singles and double which I believe  we can  win 2 gold medals,” He told ChinaAcheru.com.
