Bendel Insurance Football Club of Benin defeated Katsina United 2-0 in the Match Day 34 game of the Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) at the Samuel Ogbemudia stadium to remain comfortable in the top-flight league.


Chisom Okereke scored the opening goal of the match in the 64th minute of play, earning him the Man of The Match award sponsored by Nigeria Breweries (NB).


The bullish Enyimba loanee striker broke the goal-scoring jinx at the Samuel Ogbemudia stadium today when he powered a loose ball past Katsina goalie Kolimba Alladoum following a poor clearance of Meyinwa Oritseweyimi's shot on target, giving Insurance the lead in the 64th minute of play.


He has found it difficult to find his scoring rhythm, which he is known for since he joined the Benin Arsenal this season.


He scored his first goal for Insurance in Port Harcourt against Rivers Utd in a 1-1 draw first-round encounter.


Substitute Evans Ogbonda doubled the lead for Insurance in the 78th minute of action with his fine solo effort from the left flank.


Both teams labored to a goalless first half after their efforts failed to yield any goals before the halftime whistle.


Bendel Insurance FC now occupies the 7th position on the league table with 49 points, the same as Katsina Utd, who now trails the Benin Arsenals in the 8th position.


Insurance will be guests to Abia Warriors in the Match Day 35 next weekend in Aba.
