Ogungbenro had the other chance of the game as he tries to bend the ball and find the bottom corner but his shot went wide.

The boys finally got the needed goal through a spot-kick from Owoade Segun in the 70th minute of the game.

The boys held on to a very important victory in the tournament and the club’s history.

Coach Gbolade Ezekiel praised the performance of the players and revealed that they played to instruction against a team that have defeated them in a friendly game.

“The team is strong and they have defeated us before during our screening period.”
