Ogbomo Football Club hosted Suji FC at Garrick Memorial School on 22 February 2026, with kick-off at 2:00pm in a crucial league encounter. The home side emerged victorious with a 2-0 scoreline, both goals coming in the second half courtesy of striker Akoria Joseph, sealing all three points in a well-contested 90-minute match.

Ogbomo FC lined up in a classic 4-3-3 formation, aiming to balance defensive solidity with attacking flair. The back four consisted of Marvelous Edhemre at right-back and Godstime Aluwodu on the left flank, flanked centrally by two unnamed central defenders. This defensive unit was expected to provide a sturdy foundation against Suji FC’s attacks. In midfield, Solomon Mojirin operated centrally, supported by Osagiduwa Emorefe on the right and Richard Ola on the left, tasked with both ball distribution and linking play to the front three. Up front, the trio featured Ekhigbe Favour on the right wing, Akoria Joseph leading the line as the central striker, and Efosa Ihaza on the left wing, all charged with stretching the opposition defence and creating goal-scoring opportunities. No substitutes were named for Ogbomo FC in this fixture.

The first half was a cagey affair with both sides probing cautiously, but neither could break the deadlock by the 45-minute mark. Ogbomo’s midfield trio worked hard to control possession, while the defensive line maintained discipline against Suji FC’s forward forays. The half-time whistle arrived with the scoreline still goalless, setting the stage for a more open second period.

Shortly after the restart, Ogbomo FC began to impose themselves more assertively. In the 59th minute, Akoria Joseph capitalised on a well-crafted attacking move to open the scoring, demonstrating his poacher’s instinct inside the box. This goal injected confidence into the home side and forced Suji FC to push forward in search of an equaliser.

Despite Suji FC’s increased pressure, Ogbomo’s defence remained resolute, repelling several attempts to level the match. The visitors struggled to find clear-cut chances as the home team’s midfield and forward lines pressed effectively. Then, in the 80th minute, Akoria Joseph doubled his tally, finishing clinically to put the game beyond doubt and secure a comfortable lead.

The closing stages saw Ogbomo FC maintain control, managing the game intelligently to preserve their clean sheet. The disciplined defensive display, combined with the clinical finishing of their striker, ensured a deserved 2-0 victory. This result bolsters Ogbomo FC’s position in the league and highlights the effectiveness of their 4-3-3 setup on home soil.
