Remo Stars have emerged champions of the 2024 Valuejet Cup after defeating Ikorodu City in the final on Wednesday, Nigeriasoccernet.com reports.
The Sky Blue Stars edged the Oga Boys side 2-1 at the Remo Stars Stadium to win the tournament for the second time.
After a 8 minute penalty miss by Ibrahim Abubakar, Seth Mayi headed home at the back post off a cross by Ibrahim Abubakar to give the host the lead.
The momentum continued in the second half as Ikorodu City remained resilient until the 68 minute when Remo Stars doubled the lead.
Seth Mayi slapped the ball into an empty net after goalkeeper had made a save off Dela Akorli to score his brace.
Status quo was maintained until the 90 minute mark before Otaniyi Taofeek's fine header to get Ikorodu City to reduce the deficit, but it was not enough to change the result.
