Omaka put Kwara United ahead in the 79th minute from a rebound, while Kadri doubled the scores in the 89th minute, with an assist from Omaka, to help seal the team’s third victory in the ongoing season so far.
Kwara United had earlier recorded a 1-2 win against the Northern team in the Matchday Nine three weeks ago in Maiduguri, but the visitors came out more organised and highly determined to stop the Ilorin-based side today, though not resilient enough till the 90th minutes.
The two sides put up a scintillating performance in the first half, with the two goalkeepers called to duty on several ocassions.
The Harmony Boys weren’t in the game in the first 27 minutes of play, as the visitors took advantage of their sluggishness to mount pressure on their defense.
With the victory, Kwara United now has 12 points and minus three goals from 10 matches, ahead of their Mid-week clash with Gombe United at the Pantami Stadium on March 29th, 2023.
Coach Kabir Sulaiman Dogo, while praising his players for rising up to the ocassion when it mattered most, said that he expected a fight back from the visitors, who are now more coordinated, under a new management and new coach
