Akwa Starlet On The Rise

Isaac George scored his 4th goal of the season, a penalty against Warri Wolves to earn Akwa Starlets another win as they continue their fine form in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL).

The team continues to win at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium, this being their second of the campaign.
George scored in the 75th minute and it was enough.

Starlets were in the ascendancy from the first half with greater ball l possession while Warri Wolves registered no attempt at goal.

In the 74th minute, Aniekan Ekpe won a penalty for the home team which was converted by Isaac George a minute later.

“Our aim remains to stay in the NPFL for another season.” Akwa Starlets coach, Caleb Esu. Evans Ogenyi of Warri Wolves also blamed anxiety as one of the negatives for his team on the day.
“My boys were anxious, but we will still take home some positives from the game even though we lost,” Ogenyi said.

“My boys failed to take their chances but it takes nothing away from Akwa Starlets. They are a good side.”
