On this week’s show we have the second part of our interview with the 1997 African Footballer of the Year, Victor Ikpeba of Nigeria, and we ask whether it works if you pray for victory. Ikpeba says that while he prays in private, he didn’t pray for victory ahead of a match, unless it was the whole team praying together. Often we have fans and players of both teams praying to win. So is it helpful to pray for success before a match, and does God mind who wins a football match or any sporting contest? Will it help if you place the situation into God’s hands?
Also, we talk about Barcelona’s 16-year-old talent Ansu Fati, and the goalscoring exploits of Arsenal’s Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang.
