Sharp fc 3 vs 2 NET BREAKERS FC

Sharp FC hosted NET BREAKERS FC at Ibadan on 28 July 2026, with kick-off at 12:30pm in a pulsating league encounter. The home side emerged victorious with a 3-2 scoreline after a fiercely contested 90 minutes plus injury time, securing all three points in front of their passionate supporters.

Sharp FC lined up in a 4-2-3-1 formation, deploying Flickman GK Flick in goal, protected by a back four consisting of Mayowa Olusola at right-back, Balogun and Kolawole Isaac as central defenders, and Mentor M on the left flank. The midfield double pivot featured Kenny Alarape alongside Da Kush, tasked with both defensive cover and initiating attacks. Ahead of them, the attacking trio comprised Babalola Boluwatife on the right, Adefeoluwa AM in the central attacking midfield role, and Apu James on the left, supporting lone striker p Progress. This setup was designed to balance defensive solidity with creative freedom for the attacking midfielders and width from the full-backs. Sharp FC’s substitutes included Wale Form, Adeola OG, Korede Fatukasi, and Olamide SH.

The match burst into life in the 21st minute when Sharp FC opened the scoring through Apu James. A deft short pass from Adefeoluwa AM carved open the NET BREAKERS defence, allowing James to slot home confidently with his right foot, a goal born from a well-worked team move that showcased Sharp’s attacking intent.

However, the visitors responded swiftly, levelling the score in the 31st minute. NET BREAKERS FC found a way past the home defence to restore parity, setting up a tense remainder of the first half. The teams went into the break locked at 1-1, with both sides having demonstrated attacking threat and defensive resilience.

Early in the second half, Sharp FC made their first change at the 51st minute, bringing on Wale Form to replace the tiring Apu James. This substitution injected fresh energy into the left attacking midfield position. Just five minutes later, at 56 minutes, Adeola OG came on for Mentor M, signalling a tactical tweak to bolster the left side of defence.

The impact of these changes was immediate. Wale Form doubled Sharp FC’s lead in the 63rd minute, scoring with his right foot after a moment of individual brilliance. Remarkably, Form was also credited with the assist, indicating a self-created goal, perhaps from a quick turn or solo run that left defenders trailing.

Sharp FC extended their advantage further in the 80th minute when Babalola Boluwatife netted with a precise left-footed finish. The goal originated from a short pass by Wale Form, continuing the home side’s fluid attacking play and demonstrating the effectiveness of their wide players in creating chances.

As the match approached its final stages, Sharp FC made a double substitution at 84 and 86 minutes respectively. Korede Fatukasi replaced striker p Progress, while Olamide SH came on for central midfielder Kenny Alarape, likely aiming to shore up midfield control and maintain the lead.

Despite these efforts, NET BREAKERS FC pulled a goal back in the 86th minute, setting up a nervy finish. The visitors’ late strike ensured the contest remained finely balanced until the final whistle, but Sharp FC held firm to claim a hard-fought 3-2 victory.

Referee Gaf managed the game with authority throughout, allowing the match to flow while maintaining discipline. The encounter was a showcase of Sharp FC’s tactical flexibility and attacking prowess, with key contributions from the likes of Wale Form and Babalola Boluwatife proving decisive in securing the win.
