As F/Eagles, Dream Team, VI stun Enyimba, W’Wolves
Three times back-to-back Nigeria Premier League champions,
Kano Pillars, yesterday staked a bold claim at the Glo Super
Six invitational tournament by beating Dolphins of Port
Harcourt 2-0.
Early goals from Samuel Tswanya and new signing, Christian
Obiozor, gave the Okey Emordi-tutored side sweet victory over
Coach Stanley Eguma’s team at the Abuja National Stadium.
Tswanya shot Pillars in front after six minutes before Obiozor
netted the second goal six minutes later.
Pillars were gifted the opener six minutes through the first half
when a dangerous delivery was half cleared to Samuel whose
low shot sailed into the net.
Dolphins’ veteran goalkeeper, Rotimi Sunday, denied Pillars
what could have been their second goal with a wonderful save
in the 10th minute of action.
However, former Rangers’ striker, Christian Obiozor, raced
onto a through ball from Rabiu Ali to drill home the second
after 12 minutes.
In another match decided yesterday, Flying Eagles stunned
Enyimba International 2-0 with Captain Musa Muhamme
scoring from the spot in the 31st minute while Musa Yahaya
came off the bench to score the second goal to put the game
beyond the People’s Elephant.
Samson Siasia’s Dream Team VI also recorded a 2-1 victory
over Premier League side, Warri Wolves with goals from Austin
Amutu and Baker Ebiabowe, while Gift Atulewa scored for the
Warri-based Seasiders.
Pillars will now battle the Flying Eagles in the Match Day 2.
Dolphins have the Dream Team VI on their way while Warri
Wolves will tackle Enyimba. All games will take place
tomorrow.
