3SC Clinch IFA League trophy with two games remaining
By Admin
With just two matches left on d Reloaded IFA League 2019, the Oluyole Warriors and Ibadan soccer warlords, 3SC have emerged champions of d exciting championship even as soccer fireworks continue in the Competition at Olubadan Stadium.
Though, 3SC has taken the first position, the race for the second and third positions may not be determined until Saturday when curtains would be drawn on d League officially.
In keen contention for d second and third positions are VIA ACADEMY, YOUNG STARS FC and SAKI UTD.
3SC are currently on 44points courtesy of dying minutes muzzling of MARVELOUS FC on d 90th minute, and over-powering of ambitious ADEWALE FC in two crunchy match ups which stretched the Shooting Stars beyond limits.
3SC, however, will tackle SAKI UTD and Rovers FC in matches that would not affect their position on d League table.
With one match left against JOSSY LAD, VIA ACADEMY looks set to clinch d second position. VIA is on 38 points now as it forced SWANLUX FC to a 2-2 draw with just three minutes left in d game.
SAKI UTD have 34points, from 17 matches
With two matches against 3SC and ZARTECH, it may likely follow VIA on d League table provided ZARTECH doesn't act d spoiler role. But, in football, anything can happen. ZARTECH FC may want to improve on its position on d League table and be stingy against defeat.
YOUNG STARS FC, turned its fortunes around as it climbed steadily up d ladder with consecutive victories after playing recurrent draw games.
Its last week's astounding 1-0 victory over SAKI UTD further established d club as a formidable force to reckon with when d chips are down.
YOUNG STARS are presently on 32points and has WINNERS FC and JOSSY LAD to overcome if it wants to take d third prize.
Meanwhile, the Presentation of Trophy and Award of Medals to d best three teams in d League comes up on Saturday, 16/11/19, at d Olubadan Stadium main bowl.
There would be two matches as usual on d d date.
ADEWALE FC will lock horns with WINNERS FC at 2pm, while 3SC would play its last formality match against JOSSY LAD FC at 4pm.
Thereafter, the Presentation ceremony will commence in earnest.
It is clear that d 3SC have won d League, which is its third diadem this year--Two Pre-season championships and d League, however, winnerd of the numbers two and three positions are still hazy. But hopefully by Saturday, this would be known.
