The management of the Coal City Boys had earlier announced that there would be no gate fee for the fans, allowing them to watch the exciting match, which ended 1-0 in favor of the eight-time champions, Rangers International FC.


Collins Ugwueze scored the only goal of the match in the 16th minute.


Aiming to change the tempo of the game, Rivers United FC coach Finidi George made a triple substitution in the second half.


Returning for the second half, Handsome Surveyor, Nnaji Emmanuel, and Ndifreke Effiong replaced Victor Arikpo, Timothy Zachariah, and Ubong Friday, but they were unable to threaten the resolve of the defending champions, Rangers International FC, as the game ended 1-0.


Flying Antelopes are now in third position, having steadily risen on the NPFL log.
