NPFL REPORT: RANGERS 4-1 IKORODU UNITED. THE RAIN COULD NOT STOP RANGERS FROM WINNING


Enugu Rangers produced a sparkling performance to thrash Ikorodu United 4-1 at the Nnamdi Azikwe Stadium on Sunday.
The result ended Rangers run of three games without a win.
They are still on top of the table with 31 points from 17 games.
A brace from Tope Olusesi, a first half own goal credited to Francis Nnedum, added to another strike from Obinna Nwobodo, handed the Flying Antelopes a big win over the Oga Boys, who scored a consolation goal through Moses Ebiye.
Rangers got off to a dream start when Nnedum turned home the ball in the 11th minute, under pressure from a group of Rangers attackers for an own goal.
Six minutes later it was a moment of magic from Chisom Egbuchulam who helped set up Olusesi, and the latter powered home from inside the box.
In the 21st minute it was 3-0 to the home side and the away team were in trouble.
Olusesi was at the right place to apply the all important finishing touch much to the delight of the fans in Enugu.
Ebiye scored what later turned to be a face saving goal for the Oga Boys twenty four minutes into the fixture.
Ikorodu United showed no hunger to get back into the match in the second half, while Rangers continued to search for goals.
The visitors should have pulled another goal back but Ebiye failed to score when on one-on-one with the goalkeeper.
If the home fans thought it was all over in terms of scoring they were wrong, as Rangers had one more goal in them before the match ended.
Nwobodo scored a wonderful goal for his team.
