Lobi Stars forward, Kingsley Eduwo was the star attraction on a day of stalemates in the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) Matchday 8 as he netted a hat trick against league leaders Rangers to help his team to a surprise 3-1 victory over the Flying Antelopes.


The former Sunshine Stars striker scored twice in the first half as the Pride of Benue raced to a two-goal lead in Makurdi. Rangers thought they were back in it after in-form Chisom Egbuchulam scored with seven minutes left but Eduwo swiftly put paid to their hopes by completing his treble three minutes later as Lobi climbed to 3rd on the log, one point behind Rangers and second-placed MFM.
