Adamawa United continued its resurgence with a convincing 2-0 defeat of Dakkada on Matchday 14 of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) which also saw Rivers United return to winning ways after two defeats and a draw.
But it’s Kwara United that retained its place at the top of the NPFL after a late equalizer by Jibola Adeleke in Bauchi where they picked up a 1-1 draw. Chinedu Udeagha had given Wikki Tourists the lead in the 39th minute. Kwara United are now unbeaten in their last four matches.
In the top of the table clash between Kano Pillars and Enugu Rangers, there was nothing to separate both teams as the tie ended in a 1-1 draw. Rangers had taken an early lead in the 9th minute through Ernest Governor but Pillars equalized through Auwalu Ali Malam. Pillars are now 2nd on the table while Rangers are 3rd.
…As Heartland, Kwara United record home victories
Red-hot Nasarawa United yesterday defeated Warri Wolves 2-1 at the Warri Township stadium in one of the week six matches to maintain their unbeaten run in the ongoing Nigeria Professional Football League, NPFL, season.
With their second away victory of the season, Nasarawa United have shot to the top of the table with 14 points from six matches and are closely followed by Rivers United on 12 points but victory over Kano Pillars on Wednesday in Kaduna will see the ‘Pride of Rivers’ topple Nasarawa United.
Although Uche Ihuarulam had put Warri Wolves ahead in the 21st minute, Silas Nwankwo capitalised on poor defending by the home lads to equalise for the visitors in the 63rd minute.
