NPFL: Odunlami rescues point for Sunshine Stars in Akure

FC IfeanyiUbah’s chairman, Ifeanyi Ubah, later told newsmen after the match that he was furious with the game’s officiating.

Sunshine Stars’ defender Kunle Odunlami on Sunday in Akure rescued a point for his team in the dying minutes of their 2015-2016 Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) week five fixture.

The match played at the Ondo State Sports Complex saw visiting FC IfeanyiUbah's Suleiman Muhammed scoring in the 86th minute, before Odunlami equalised in the 88th minute.

Ubah said his team could have won the match if not for bad officiating.

"We now want to win all our upcoming matches, both home and away,’’ he said.

The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that Sunshne Stars now have two points from four matches, with a game in hand.
