The 2013/2014 Season of the Lagos Junior League came to a climax with Surulere Sport City FC sealing the Premier League title with a hard fought 2-0 victory over Onigbongbo Ultimate Strikers at the Epe stadium on Sunday evening.

Despite Y.M.D. Babes of OJO winning their final match 3-0 against whipping boys Apapa Iganmu their chances of securing a title victory relied solely on Onigbongbo Fc causing an upset in their match against the boys from Surulere.

Onigbongbo FC wasn’t up to the task and restricted OJO to a second place finish. The OJO team will rue missing the title but will be delighted with their consistency after finishing second two seasons in a row.

Ifako Ijaiye FKJ United sneaked into third place on the final day at the expense of Apapa Golden stars who failed to pick a point against relegation bound Ayayo Fc of Imota. Apapa Golden Stars have now finished fourth place two seasons in a row and both times have slipped close to the finish line.

Agege Giants took advantage of Onigbongbo FC’s loss to hold on to fifth place. The Agege team will be pleased with their 2013/14 season coming fifth in their first season in the premier division of the LJL.

In League 1 final round of matches, Orile Agege sealed the 2013/2014 League 1 Title with a 3-0 victory over Ikorodu Central. Ibeju Lekki edged out Egbe Idimu to second place on goals aggregate while Lekki FC and Bariga FC completed the top five teams in League 1.

The final week of the Lagos Junior League 2013/2014 Season has finally arrived, Surulere FC suffered a first half scare in their outstanding match against Oshodi Isolo but rallied back to win the game 2-1 at the Legacy pitch on Wednesday evening.

Oshodi who virtually extinguished Apapa Golden Stars’ title hopes last week looked set to repeat the feat against Surulere FC scoring a goal early in the first half. The Surulere side looked stretched and struggled to contain Oshodi in a torrid first half.

After the restart the Sport City boys looked more composed and quickly returned the favour exposing Oshodi’s weaknesses and scoring two goals in quick succession to finally take pole position in the final round of matches.

Surulere FC have to contend with Onigbongbo ultimate strikers at the Epe stadium on Sunday evening. It is a must win for Surulere team if they intend to win the Premier League title this season.

Y.M.D. Babes of OJO will take on Apapa Iganmu in what is most likely a mismatch at Alade stadium on This evening. A win for OJO is the most plausibe scenario but OJO FC’s focus will be on the result of the match at Epe between Onigbongbo Ultimate Strikers and Surulere FC.

In other Premier League encounters, Eti Osa East will take on Lagos Island, Oshodi will face Lagos Island East while Ajeromi Ifelodun will host Itire Ikate. Mosan Okunola will travel to face Odi Olowo while Agege and Mushin will tango at the Legacy pitch, surulere on Sunday evening.

In League 1, Orile Agege only require a draw to win the division when they face Ikorodu Central on Saturday afternoon.

Egbe Idinmu drubbed Ojodu 5-0 in the final match of the season and will fall to third if Ibeju Lekki win their final match against Ifelodun FC. Lekki FC’s fate as fourth is sealed inspite the outcome of their match against Epe Alaro.

Bariga FC narrowly edged Ojodu Fc to fifth place on goals difference. Shomolu FC, Yaba FC, Ikosi Isheri and Agbado Oke Odo are set to complete the top ten.

Leave a comment

Surulere Sport City FC achieved an almost impossible feat when they defeated Y.M.D Babes of OJO in their LASU stronghold on Sunday evening. Surulere held on to a single goal scored early in the second half and played confidently to subdue the highly rated OJO side.

This score line has once again thrown open the title race with Ojo, Surulere, Apapa and Ifako Ijaiye all back in contention.
Ifako Ijaiye continued their impressive form as they routed Ajeromi Ifelodun 7-2.

Two goals in the first ten minutes of the game from Akinde Surah and Akeem Taiwo set the mood for a rout, Koku Mensa pulled one back for Ajeromi Ifelodun in the 12th minute but after two first half goals and three more in the second half the game was out of Ajeromi’s reach.

In League 1 Orile Agege have had a lovely week first peeping Lekki in their rescheduled encounter then they pulled off a grand coup as a lone goal over Egbe Idimu helped propel them to the top of the League 1 table, Ibeju lekki also trumped local rivals Lekki Fc 2-1 to drag themselves back into contention.
