Two goals were enough for defending champions Lesotho as they brushed aside Ghana to win the 34th Ajegunle Mock Nations Cup on Sunday.
The final which was played at the Nigerian Navy playground in Ajegunle was the first since 2019.
At the resumption of hostilities after a barren first half, Lesotho took the game to their opponent and opened scoring in the 58th minute with a clinical finish by Idara Friday.
Alabi Akpatapiti doubled his side’s lead with a tap-in in the 77th minute after he was left unmarked by ball-watching Ghanaian defenders.
