The Daniel Ogunmodede-led team had relinquished their top position over the weekend following a 2-0 defeat to Katsina United.  


However, a win was crucial, not only to restore confidence but also to leapfrog title rivals Rivers United, who faced a challenging away match against Sunshine Stars.  


Remo Stars dominated the first half, creating numerous opportunities. Their advantage grew when Shooting Stars’ Taiwo Murtala received a red card in the 44th minute.  


Moments later, the hosts were awarded a controversial penalty, which Sikiru Alimi converted to put them ahead just before halftime.  


The lead was doubled in the 67th minute by Olamilekan Adedayo, sealing a comprehensive performance. With a numerical disadvantage, Gbenga Ogunbote’s Shooting Stars struggled to contain the relentless hosts.  


The victory saw Remo Stars return to the summit after Rivers United were held to a 1-1 draw at the Dina Dipo Stadium in Ijebu.
