Abia Warriors continue home invincibility against Rangers Int'l FC

Posted : 27 November 2023

Abia Warriors Football Club extended their home invincibility in the ongoing Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) with a routine 1-0 victory over their neighbors, Enugu Rangers International FC in a Match Day 10 game played at the Umuahia Township Stadium.

It was an encounter that lived up to its billing as spectators sat at the edges of their seats, watching the explosive, entertaining, intriguing, interesting, and captivating oriental battle.

Spectators were still making their way into the arena when Collins Nwoburuoke nodded the Warriors ahead with the game only two minutes old, proving to be the winner following a well-tailored corner-kick from Emmanuel Onu.

In the 20th minute, Samson Obi thought he had scored the second for the home side after being put through on goal with a defense-splitting pass by the enterprising Emmanuel Onu, only for the goal to be ruled out for offside.

Fifteen minutes later, Samson Obi missed what would have been a beauty, his shot going narrowly wide, with Emmanuel Onu the orchestrator of the through pass again.

By this time, Samson Obi had constituted an unwanted nuisance to the Rangers' defense, and he came close to scoring, only to be denied by the upright after a delightful combination with Meme Okike.

In the second half, Abia Warriors failed to take the chances that came their way, and despite the visitor's fightback, the Warriors' rearguard led by Captain of the day, Ifeanyi Anaemena, kept them at bay until the center referee sounded the last blast of his whistle.

Next for the Umuahia warlords is an away game against Bayelsa United in Yenagoa.
