Chijioke Mbaoma was the hero on Wednesday in a rescheduled game against Bendel Insurance as he netted the winning goal to earn Enyimba International full points, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

After having a difficult start to the 2023/2024 Nigeria Premier League season, the People's Elephants are gradually gaining momentum.

Having defeated Lobi Stars last weekend, Enyimba saw the rescheduled game against Bendel Insurance as an opportunity to improve their position on the table.

The Benin Arsenal made it tough for the host from the blast of the whistle and no goal was recorded in the second half.

Joseph Atule put the champions ahead in the 70th minute before Ismael Sarki netted a leveler in the 75th minute.

Mbaoma sent the home fans into a frenzy with the winning goal in the 80th minute and ensured another maximum point in the second consecutive game.
