With just seven more matches to go in this year’s Glo Premier League, Enyimba yesterday succeeded in taking what now looks like an unassailable lead after beating Wikki Tourists 2-0 at home.
A goal in each half by captain Chinedu Udoji made the difference for the Kadiri IKhana tutored side who would be making it victory number seven should they smile home with the coveted trophy this term.
While Enyimba coasted home to victory, Warri Wolves who were placed second could only manage a 1-1 draw away against defending champions, Kano Pillars in a game that had continued to show that Pillars had lost its home invincibility. A fortnight ago, Pillars lost its first home game in 12 years when it bowed to Nasarawa United by 2-1.
Sunshine Stars however continued to give Enyimba a fight with a 1-0 home victory over Abia Warriors.
Enyimba now leads the league log with 58 points from 31 matches, five clear points ahead of second placed Sunshine Stars who now have 53 points.
Newcomer to the scene, IfeanyiUbah had its league woes compounded by Giwa FC who held her to a 1-1 draw at the Beverly Hills Stadium, Nnewi. IfeanyiUbah had only last week also drawn at home against Pillars in a match in which it incurred a warning from league organizers, LMC who warned the club to put her supporters in check or risk banishment.
Sharks on its part succeeded in brightening her chances of escaping relegation with a 1-0 victory over Dolphins in the much talked about Garden City local derby.
