Abia Warriors beat Enugu Rangers in derby



  

    Nigerian champions Enugu Rangers were beaten 4-0 by Abia Warriors in Sunday's NPFL clash at the Umuahia Stadium.
   The win ensured that Abia Warriors completed a first-ever Nigeria Professional Football League, NPFL, double over Rangers.

   Sunday Adetunji opened the scoring for Abia Warriors on six minutes from goalkeeper Agbor Ekoi's assist and nine minutes later Anthony Okemmiri finished off Uche Ihuarulam's pass to make it two-nil against the champions.
Adetunji netted his second of the afternoon to extend Abia Warriors' lead, while  Obi Samson added gloss to the score line when he turned in the ball past Rangers goalkeeper Seidu Mutawakilu.
    The champions, with 26 points from 21 matches now, only have a superior goal difference to thank for their position above the drop zone.
