Match Recap
Sporting Lagos had Inter Lagos beaten before the hosts even found their footing, with S. Ayoade opening the scoring inside seven minutes to set the tone for a controlled, clinical afternoon in the Nigerian Premier Football League. Inter Lagos, yet to earn a single point from three games, offered little resistance as A. Baba doubled the lead in the 60th minute, and any slim hope of a fightback was snuffed out when V. Ugwu added a third deep into stoppage time at 90+3. Three goals, three scorers, zero from the home side — Sporting Lagos' 3-0 away victory was as emphatic as the scoreline suggests, leaving Inter Lagos rooted at the foot of the NPFL standings with no wins and no points from their opening trio of fixtures. Ugwu's late strike, timed almost to the final whistle, is the kind of goal that confirms a rout rather than starts one — see exactly how it landed.
