Remo Stars opened the scoring account early in the 18th minute as former NPFL goal poacher, Junior Lokosa’s close range header from Ismael Sodiq’s clever assist gifted his team the first goal.

The Daniel Ogunmodede-coached team doubled the lead in the 27th minute as Olamilekan Adams curls in the ball from a perfect square pass by Seun Ogunribide.

Both teams however played a fair game till the last whistle as there were no urgency from Remo Stars to add to the tally.
