It was pure fun and exciting moments for the impressive crowd at the lush green Nathaniel Idowu pitch, Oregie, Ajegunle, on the opening day of Nathaniel Idowu Ajegunle U-14 football tournament.
The tournament which is sponsored by the Nathaniel Idowu Foundation in partnership with the Ajeromi-Ifelodun Sports Council, truly lived up to its billings as the starry-eyed lads put up raw, but scintillating football displays that kept fans on the edge of their seats.
The six matches of the week one produced a very impressive tally of 21 goals. And of course, it tells a story of intense and highly competitive games.
In the first game of matchday one, Ajegunle United Sporting Club shared the spoils with Michael May FA in a 1-1 draw. Match two of the day saw Pure Talents FA showing pure intentions as they trashed Coal City FA 3-0. The third game was goal galore as Strong Dove FA was too strong for Best of Best FA in a 5-1win.
Bright Future FA followed with a 2-1 over Moore Wins FA. The goals rain continued as Fortune FA walloped Divinely Blessed FA 5-0. The last game of the day featured Young 11 FA who lost 0-2 to Sharp Talent FA.
Matches continue next week at the same venue, with interesting fixtures.
