3SC Beat Crown FC To Win Seyi Makinde Pre-season Tournament

Date:

Shooting Stars Spirts Club on Sunday defeated Crown FC of Ogbomosho to emerge the winner of the first edition of Seyi Makinde Football Volunteer Movement Cup at the Lekan Salami stadium, Ibadan,

Second half substitute, Azeez Akintunde struck two goals in the 60th and 82nd minutes to fire Shooting Stars to a 2-0 victory.

The new signing charged forward from midfield before finding the back of the net from the edge of the box to make it 1-0 at an hour mark.

Having seen attackers; Bala Akintunde, Malomo Taofeeq and Ayo Adejubu missed scoring chances at the first half, Azeez Akintunde took matters into his own hands and gave the Ibadan Soccer Lords the opener at the 64th minute.

In the 82nd minute, the Ibadan born attacking midfielder was unleashed by a fine Ajani Ibrahim through-ball and made no mistake in dispatching past Crown FC goalkeeper Adeniyi Adejare from a tight angle to give 3SC a deserved win.

The Gbenga Ogunbote led team look ready for the 2022/23 Nigeria Professional Football League season.
