After two rounds of matches at the ongoing 2022/23 Nigeria Professional Football League Super 6 playoffs in Lagos, the path to claiming the title and continental spots is as stiff as the competition that has been witnessed on the two match-days completed so far at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena, PUNCH Sports Extra reports.
With two dramatic draws earning them just two points so far, Remo Stars have been haunted by hard luck in the Super 6. After scoring a late winner to level up at 2-2 against Enyimba on Saturday, they almost picked a win against Rivers United on Monday with a stoppage time stunner from Olamilekan Adedayo, but their joy was short-lived as the champions responded immediately with the equaliser, before Remo’s bench could even stop celebrating what they thought was the match winner.
“We have a way of turning things around because we have nine points to fight for and that’s our focus. We believe it’s possible,” Ogunmodede said on Monday. Currently joint-top of the Super 6 table with four points, Rivers must cushion the shock against Remo with a win against Lobi if they must stake a claim for the title.
