TICO/SELECT MatchDay 4: Rangers, Abia Warriors, share spoils

Posted : 27 August 2024

Abakaliki fans and football lovers in Ebonyi State were treated to a fascinating NPFL clash on Monday as Abia Warriors FC of Umuahia and Enugu Rangers Int’l FC renewed their Oriental rivalry at the ongoing Ifeanyi Ekwueme TICO/SELECT Preseason Football Tournament.


The encounter, which was the third and last match of the day, did not produce any goals as both NPFL teams settled for a goalless draw. However, the match was a delight for the fans, who turned out in large numbers and were seen clamoring for more NPFL action.

 


Both sides were determined to secure a victory but ended up canceling each other out with very astute defense. As a result, NPFL champions Rangers ended the tournament with two draws, while Abia Warriors comfortably lead Group A with 7 points, having won two and drawn one match.


Meanwhile, in Group B, Enyimba FC, despite fielding their B team, took charge of their group with two consecutive victories. They defeated the hard-fighting Excellent FC of Enugu 1-0 and Achievers FC 1-0, earning 6 maximum points from two games.


The early game of the day between Kun Khalifat FC of Owerri and Coal City of Enugu ended 1-1, leaving the Owerri side in a must-win situation in their last game against Abia Warriors, scheduled for tomorrow at 12 noon.


Coal City FC, on the other hand, will face a tough challenge at 4 p.m. on Tuesday when they take on Rangers Int’l in an Enugu City derby at the Abakaliki Township Stadium.


The first game of the day will see Excellent FC of Ugheli, Delta State, attempting to join Enyimba FC in the semifinals when they face the home side, Mathias FA of Ebonyi State, who have lost two games so far, leaving them without a point.
