Azeez rages at Remo’s Olamilekan
The 18-year-old delivered a man-of-the-match display as the Ikenne side proved to be the ultimate comeback kings at the ongoing NPFL Super 6.
Olamilekan was heavily involved as the Sky Blues almost registered their first win of the tournament in superb style.
The youngster came off the bench to play a decisive role to inspire Remo to their second point against the Pride of Rivers.
Moments after coming on, Olamilekan was a thorn in Rivers United's defenders, who could not handle the youngster and his tricky. He went on to assist hero Adedayo to cancel out Nyima Nwagua’s first half opener for Rivers.
And in added time, Adedayo completed the comeback when he unleashed a screamer to make it 2-1.
The entire team celebrated wildly with their fans, with Olamilekan running to celebrate with famous photographer OgaNla while the game was not over.
However, his excessive celebration did not go down well with Nigeria beach soccer legend Abu Azeez.
