NPFL MD 24 Wrap: MFM Unbeaten In Five, Sunshine Digging Deep Still, Akwa Reclaim Top Spot By Omolagba Oluwayemi "We can't say this is what changed, it's the same players, the same training, the same coaching crew, but all I can say is, it's been God." "We don't understand how it's happening but all I can say is, this is God working." Words of the lone goal scorer, Alabi Oladayo as MFM FC pipped Dakkada FC 1-0 at the Soccer Temple. The first half ended goalless between MFM FC and Dakkada FC at the Soccer Temple, Agege and with the second half heading towards same direction, a moment of brilliance from Alabi Oladayo who was introduced to the match in second half sparked jubilation in the stadium with fans shouting "television goal". Speaking to BSNSports.com.ng on the goal, Alabi said: "When the ball came in to me, I wanted to shoot directly but I decided to first control it before firing it into the net." The win is MFM's fourth in five games and moved them to the top half of the log. They remain unbeaten in the second stanza and are yet to concede goal in five matches.
