Cem Sagar, CEO of Diamond Sports Management, was present as Plymouth achieved a remarkable FA Cup victory, with Ryan Hardie’s penalty securing a 1-0 win over Liverpool on Sunday.
Muhamed Tijani, a product of 36 Lion, participated in the match for the victorious team and nearly scored with a well-placed header during the thrilling contest.
Sagar, a partner at 36 Lion, was on-site to provide support to Tijani, who has recently returned from injury.
The first half was marked by tension, with the visitors struggling to create opportunities and losing Joe Gomez to injury. The hosts capitalized on their chance after halftime when Harvey Elliott was penalized for handling the ball in the box, allowing Ryan Hardie to convert the penalty after a lengthy delay.
Miron Muslic’s team continued to create opportunities, but it was Liverpool that applied late pressure, coming close to equalizing through James McConnell, Darwin Nunez, and Diogo Jota.
Tijani had a chance to extend the lead with a header from a cross, but it narrowly missed the target.
Plymouth’s goalkeeper, Hazard, emerged as a late hero, making two outstanding saves during nine minutes of added time—first denying Jota’s half-volley and then tipping over a close-range header from Nunez.
Just after preserving the lead, the final whistle blew, marking a match that could be remembered as an FA Cup classic, with the Championship’s bottom team eliminating the Premier League leaders.
Following the match, Hajji Gafar Liameed, owner of 36 Lion, remarked: “It is always a positive outcome when a Lion is involved.”
“Tijani Muhamed from Badiko Kaduna South secured the victory for Plymouth Argyle against Liverpool today in distant England.”
“Congratulations to the Lion family, and thank you, Cem Sagar, for bringing good fortune to Plymouth,” he added.
