NPFL: Remo Stars Shoot Down Enyimba in Aba

League contender, Remo Stars of Ikenne secured their second away win  in the ongoing Nigeria Premier Football League (NPLF) yesterday, handing out a lone-goal victory against hosts Enyimba in Aba.

The People’s Elephant started the game with full confidence after they recorded two consecutive victories and the most recent was the win against Bendel Insurance of Benin. Th victories lifted the current champions to fifth position on the log.

But yesterday, the hosts who dominated proceedings from the blast of the whistle, were unable to break down the backline of Remo Stars.

Despite all the pressure, it was Remo Stars that got the much-needed goal in the 34th minute via Samad Kadiri.

The champions piled more pressure on the Sky-Blue Boys in the second half but they found it extremely difficult to get the equaliser until the referee blew the final whistle.

The result halted the recent pace and progress garnered by the former African champions.

The win thus pushed the Ikenne team to second position on the log on 19 points , just one below leaders Lobi Stars on 20 points.
