REGULAR SEASON: UP AND RUNNING

Three exciting games this past Sunday. first of all Onadrix rangers totally dominated vasco untied from start to finish. Pillar and Chuky came through for rangers with some fantastic finish. No wonder rangers are the undisputed favourites.
The second game of the day was nice with ogbunigwe handing out eastern united a loss. Nana playing for ogbunigwe tore up easterns defense even with the presence of Galidore (forgive me if i did not get it right) playing defense. ogbunigwe paying like they are on a mission. how long they can keep that up, we'll see.
The final game of the day wasn't up to par with the other two, I guess cus everyone including the players were focused on Agama's chicken or Uche's suya. Raccah held of Mofe for a one goal victory.
the crowd showed a lot of interest in the games. a whole of people are showing up for the games, if you have not come out yet, you are definitely missing out.

The power rankings have changed. not the number 1 team though. here goes the new rankings.
1. Onadrix Rangers: easy victory over Vasco made sure rangers kept their number 1 spot.
2. Enyimba: off week
3. Inter: off week
4. Ogbunigwe: moved up four spots because of their impressive victory over eastern.
5. Raccah: also moved up for spots as they held their own against Mofe.
6. Youngbloods: bye week
7. Mofe: narrowly lost to Raccah. dropped to # 7
8. Vasco: missing two key players but so was their opponent. no excuses in this league. dropped from 4th to 8th.
9. Eastern: lacked team spirit and effort. look disorganised. trust me eastern has to pick it up in a hurry or it could spell disaster.

I'm looking forward to the game of the day next week which pits Ogbunigwe vs Enyimba. Easter Sunday matinee. lets bring our friends, families and enemies(maybe we might get u to make up-u feel me).

The Nigerian soccer league - live, life, laugh.

first week

first week at the soccer field was exceptionally nice. the food was sizzling, music pumping, exciting game on the pitch and most of all beautiful ladies. it felt good to be playing soccer again. it felt good to be around people. expectations for the season are high. i mean the clear favorites to win it all would be the defending champions Onadrix Rangers. but they will have some nice competition with teams gearing up.
I'll be blogging on here on the regular and expect your comments and reply.
my preseason rankings are as follows:
1. rangers
2. enyimba
3. inter
4. vasco
5. mofe
6. eastern
7.young bloods
8. ogbunigwe
9. raccah

every week I'll post a new power rankings based on games played and how played.

looking forward to the season and looking forward to blogging with you.
