One of the revelations for Inter Lagos FC and a youth product of Flying Angels Academy of Enugu, Daniel Onyia has stated that he expects a fight from his team mates as they take on Giant Brillars at the UNEC Stadium, Enugu in another away fixture this weekend.
Daniel was a key member of the 2023 Nigerian U-17 side tutored by Coach Nduka Ugbade but failed to make the final squad list to the 2023 AFCON U-17 in Algeria on administrative grounds.
The 17 year old midfielder has now joined up with new and ambitious NNL side, Inter Lagos FC and have been in great form for the side despite the Lagos based side losing its first two matches.
As the team embarks on its second away tie to Giant Brillars this weekend, Daniel has now assured fans and stakeholders of the club of a resurgent form for his side.
In his words, the exciting and gifted midfielder while speaking with the media said that ‘’We are hoping to finally pick our first point this weekend against Giant Brillars and I am hoping it will be a rewarding home-coming for me. The stadium to host the match, the UNEC Stadium is just a stone throw away from where I and my family live in Enugu, so I am hoping my people from my community will throw their support behind our team against Giant Brillars. I also believe this will mark a turnaround for us because in all honesty we gave our very best in our first two games of the season, first against Ijebu United whom we really played well against and I feel we actually deserved at least a point in that match but luck didn’t smile on us in that encounter. Also against Crown FC of Ogbomosho, we also put in so much and felt we were hard done by hard luck but we are hoping all of that will change starting with our match against Giant Brillars in Enugu’’ concluded Daniel Onyia

Moyinoluwa Owolabi, arguably the youngest footballer in the NWFL has stated she is excited to have played a part in securing a vital away point for Remo Stars Queens last week against high fliers and one of the household name in Women’s football, Delta Queens

The former Sunshine Queens player who recently switched to Remo Stars Queens was on for around 60 mins before she was substituted in her team’s second fixture of the season.

15 years old Moyinoluwa who was on for 90 minutes in her team’s first match of the season against favourites, Rivers Angels a few months ago helped Sunshine Queens secured their return back to the NWFL when she starred for the Akure based women side at the NWFL championship play-offs where she scored three goals thus helping Sunshine Queens secure promotion back to the summit of the Nigerian Women Football League.

Speaking with the media, the talented centre forward represented by fast rising football management company Eleshbeck Global Concept, also comfortable playing the role of an Attacker stated that “I am excited to have played a part in securing our second point of the season against Delta Queens. In the last week we have played two of the top teams in the NWFL and secured a point each on both occasion. It is not easy getting a point away from home against Delta Queens. For us it is a very vital point and it will surely boost the morale of the team. We will not relent and will keep pushing. We now look forward to our next game on Wednesday 29th where we will be looking to get the maximum point and I will be hoping that the coaches will trust me once again to be in the starting line up but whatever decision is taken, the team’s success is important than my personal aspirations. I will definitely be supporting anyone given the nod to start” concluded Moyinoluwa.

Remo Stars Queens will on Monday, 29th November, 2023 host Bayelsa Queens in their third game of the NWFL season.
