Super Eagles Assistant, Coach Daniel Ogunmodede led Remo Stars to a crucial 1-0 victory over arch-rivals Bendel Insurance in a fiercely contested NPFL matchday 8 fixture in Ikenne on Sunday.
The win propelled the Sky Blue Stars to the top of the table, temporarily, with 18 points.
Dela Akorli’s decisive goal came just three minutes before halftime, securing all three points for Ogunmodede’s side.
The win helped Remo Stars bounce back after a 3-1 defeat to Plateau United last Thursday, reaffirming their strong start to the season.
Elsewhere, Abia Warriors also returned to winning ways with a 3-1 victory over Plateau United, following their midweek 3-0 loss to Nasarawa United.
In other matches, Bayelsa United, El Kanemi Warriors, and Sunshine Stars each earned 1-0 victories, while Kano Pillars and Kwara United played to a draw in Katsina.
