Inter Lagos claims first NPFL victory

Inter Lagos secured a memorable 1-0 victory over Enyimba, handing the Aba giants their third consecutive defeat of the season and their first home loss of the campaign.

The visitors produced a disciplined performance to leave the Enyimba Stadium with all three points.

Ezekiel scored the decisive goal, sending the visitors into the lead and ultimately securing the win.

The match remained closely contested as both sides looked to gain control. Enyimba pushed forward in search of an equaliser, but Inter Lagos remained organised and protected their lead.

Enyimba had opportunities to respond, particularly from set pieces. The home side won a free-kick on the edge of the box late in the game, but the effort was dealt with by the Inter Lagos defence.

The visitors continued to hold their shape as time kept going down, frustrating Enyimba’s attempts to find a way back into the contest.

Inter Lagos Hold Firm

Despite Enyimba’s pressure, the visitors maintained their narrow advantage until the final whistle.

The result represents an important away victory for Inter Lagos, who showed composure to protect their lead against one of Nigeria’s most established clubs.

For Enyimba, however, the defeat adds to a difficult start to the season. The Aba-based side have now lost three consecutive matches.

Enyimba suffer first home loss

The defeat is particularly significant because it is Enyimba’s first home loss of the season.

Playing in front of their home supporters, Enyimba were unable to find a response after Inter Lagos took the lead.

Their failure to score means they leave the match empty-handed.

Inter Lagos Claim All Three Points

Ezekiel’s goal proved to be the difference as the away side completed a 1-0 victory over Enyimba.

The result gives the away  team three valuable points and extends Enyimba’s losing run to three matches.

With more fixtures still to come, Enyimba will now look to end their poor run, while the pride of Lagos  will aim to build on their impressive away performance.
