2024/2025 NPFL Match Day 29: Remo Stars FC inches closer to first league crown

Posted : 17 March 2025

The 2024/2025 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) leaders, Remo Stars, have inched closer to their first-ever league crown with a commanding 2-0 win over visiting Heartland International FC.


In the 2024/2025 NPFL Match Day 29 encounter, the Sky Blue Stars bounced back from the Match Day 28 setback to secure the much-needed win, maintaining their eight-point gap at the top of the log.


The Daniel Ogunmodede-led team got the first goal courtesy of midfielder Olamilekan Adedayo, while a goal from new signing Samson Olasupo was enough for the Southwest club to reignite their title charge following a 2-1 defeat to Bendel Insurance in their previous outing.


Adedayo opened the scoring in the 31st minute before Samson Olasupo sealed the win in the 80th.


The Sky Blue Stars came out strong from the start, creating a flurry of chances from Fabian Nworie, Sodiq Ismail, and Franck Mawuena in the opening 15 minutes.


They broke through after the half-hour mark when Adedayo drilled the ball low to the bottom right corner of the goalkeeper off an assist from Mawuena.


Togolese striker Mawuena was denied again after the restart as Remo pushed for a cushion, which eventually came from second-half substitute Olasupo.


The former Sunshine Stars striker netted his second goal for the club in three games with a header off a cross from Tochukwu Michael to seal the win.


The defeat left Heartland, coached by ex-international Emmanuel Amuneke, in 17th place, just one point above the relegation zone.
