The Ikorodu Conference of the 1XBET Community Football Championship came to a successful conclusion Thursday, with Glory Boys FC winning the zonal finals and getting the ticket to the final 8, after defeating hard-fighting Edunz International FC 2-1 in the final game.
Expectedly, it was a very exciting and entertaining encounter that had the impressive crowd baying for blood and in the 19th minute of the game, Omisore Daniel opened scoring for Edunz FC. They increased the tempo and missed three glitz edge chances to increase the scoring.
However, Glory Boys refused to let their dream fizzle out and came into the game stronger and equalised through Damilare Samuel in the 26th minute. Iremide Ayomide netted the winning goal in the 32nd minute to earn Glory Boys FC the ticket.
Highlights of the final day was the presentation of Garri Ijebu specially produced by Vino Gano Wine Company to the winning team. Afterwards, hosts Landmark, while expressing appreciation to 1XBET and the organisers for bringing top quality grassroots football to their community also took time to entertain members of the 1XBET Cup crew and Match International Limited to choice drinks and food.
The train of the 1XBET Cup moves to Lagos Island for the last in the series of the conferences, which would produce the last qualifiers for the final eight of the championship.
