Rangers International FC of Enugu marked a significant milestone in the 2024 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) as they secured their maiden away victory on Saturday. The team emerged triumphant with a 1-0 win against Doma United in Gombe, showcasing their determination and prowess on the field. The lone goal, scored by Collins Ugwueze in the 30th minute, proved to be decisive in clinching all three points for the visitors.
The victory holds great importance for Rangers, not only in terms of the league standings but also in bolstering their continental aspirations. With this win, the Flying Antelopes now find themselves in the 4th position on the league table, amassing a total of 34 points. However, the final outcome of matches involving other top contenders like Plateau United and Kano Pillars on Sunday could further impact Rangers' standing in the league.
The Flying Antelopes' success away from home adds a new dimension to their season, signifying their ability to perform under pressure in diverse environments. Fidelis Ilechukwu, the team's coach, has undoubtedly played a crucial role in motivating and preparing his squad for challenging encounters, evident in their recent triumph on the road.
This victory puts Rangers in a favorable position as they continue to mount pressure on the leading clubs in the NPFL. The resilience and strategic play exhibited by the team showcase their commitment to competing at the highest level and their ambition to secure a prominent spot in Nigerian football. As the season progresses, Rangers International FC aims to build on this away success and maintain their momentum in pursuit of both domestic and continental glory.
