The Uyo Township Stadium witnessed a nail-biting encounter on Match Day 8 of the NWFL Premiership league as Delta Queens FC narrowly fell to Ibom Angels FC. The match, a battle of tactical prowess and relentless determination, saw Delta Queens dominate possession and control the tempo for the majority of the game.
The first half and second half were a testament to the Queens’ dominance, and skillful play through their talisman Destiny Itobor and Medfield mestroy Dagogo Favour, keeping the Ibom Angels defense on their toes. However, a lapse in concentration during extra time proved costly, as Uwah Abasiofon, the Ibom Angels striker, capitalized on a momentary lapse in Delta Queens’ watertight defense coordinated by Damaris Favour, scoring the only goal of the match in the 90th minute.
Despite the disappointing loss, Delta Queens’ performance was a testament to their potential and resilience. They showcased their ability to control the game and create numerous scoring opportunities. The narrow defeat serves as a valuable learning experience, highlighting the importance of maintaining focus throughout the entirety of a match.
