Lukeman Aliu came off the bench to salvage a point for FC IfeanyiUbah away at MFM FC in a Matchday 19 fixture at the Agege Stadium in Lagos.
MFM right full-back Justice Zachariah had given the home side the lead in the 36th minute when he met a defense-splitting pass by Akanni Elijah. Ali, who replaced injured Nonso Nzediegwu in the first half, restored parity four minutes after the hour mark by pouncing on a spilled effort by goalkeeper Adeniyi Bamidele.
The game started with low intensity as chances came in few and far between. However, both coaches made changes early in the first half and the entrants proved pivotal to the outcome of the match. Nzediegwu sustained a head injury early on and was replaced by Aliu in the 19th minute while MFM head coach Olalekan Gabriel made a tactical change that saw Elijah come in for Mumuni Amoo in the 33rd minute.
