NPFL Round-Up: Jigawa Golden Stars stun Abia Warriors

Abia Warriors are the only team with no points at all after four games.

Jigawa Golden Stars secured a massive away win in one of the Nigeria Professional Football League games played across the country on Wednesday.

The Dutse boys stunned Abia Warriors 3-1 in Aba as they took a leap on the NPFL log to the 8th spot.

On their part, the defeat for Abia Warriors, which is their fourth in as many games, leaves them rock bottom of the table.

Many would be disappointed with the poor start to the season by the Warriors.

They recruited players massively before the present campaign kicked off and even secured the services of Imama Amapakabo as their coach.

Defeat in Nnewi this weekend will see them become the first club in the NPFL history to lose their opening five matches of the season.

Elsewhere, Rivers United finally succumbed to their first defeat of the season in the NPFL as they suffered a 1-0 away loss to Wikki Tourists.

Chinedu Udeagha scored the only goal of the game in the 30th minute of the encounter and despite all efforts by the star-studded Rivers United, they failed to get the equaliser.

Despite the loss, the Pride of Rivers are still top of the league with nine points followed closely by Rangers who defeated FC IfeanyiUbah 2-1 in Enugu.
