The Muhammadu Dikko Stadium was the stage for a remarkable display of football, as Katsina United ran riot against Sporting Lagos in a dominant 2-0 win.
The Gwagare Boys' attack, spearheaded by Andrew Idoko, Azeez Falolu, Moses Effiong, Samson Olasupo, and Michael Ibe Okoro, was unstoppable in their quest for victory, displaying superior teamwork, creativity, and relentless pressure.

The second half saw the hosts continue their dominance, with Michael Ibe Okoro unleashing a ferocious strike to seal the deal in the 64th minute.
Sporting Lagos, on the other hand, struggled to keep pace with the relentless Gwagare Boys, failing to penetrate their organized defense and create any meaningful chances.
Andrew Idoko's clinical finish and Michael Ibe Okoro's thunderous strike were not just goals but works of art, a testament to the team's creativity and precision.
