Battle of the Exes: Finidi George and Super Eagles legend Nwankwo Kanu's Enyimba set for reunion
Former Super Eagles manager Finidi George is set for a return to his former employer Nwankwo Kanu's Enyimba in a must-win NPFL for both teams.
From the first whistle, the intensity was palpable. Both teams exchanged early chances, with Remo Stars coming close through Franck Mawuena, whose header from a well-placed cross nearly found the back of the net.
However, it was Rangers who struck first. Isaac Saviour opened the scoring with a deft finish in the 30th minute, sending the home crowd at the Cathedral into a frenzy.
As the match progressed, Rangers showed their defensive brilliance while capitalising on their opportunities before Kingsley Maduforo doubled their lead with a powerful shot that left Remo's goalkeeper with no chance.
The rest of the second half saw Remo Stars push for a comeback. Despite dominating possession and creating several chances, they struggled to break through Rangers' resilient defence.

Hadi Haruna finally found a glimmer of hope for Remo with a late goal, but it proved too little, too late.
The match ended with Rangers celebrating a vital win that not only boosted their confidence but also marked their third consecutive unbeaten match in the league.
Meanwhile, Remo Stars were left to ponder how their six-match winning streak had come to an abrupt halt.
For Ilechukwu and Ogunmodede, this match was more than just three points; it was a testament to their friendship and professional rivalry.
Both coaches have shared countless moments off the pitch, but on this day, it was Ilechukwu who emerged victorious.
With this win, the Rangers climbed to third place in the NPFL, they now sit 10 points behind the league leaders after this crucial victory.

Conversely, Remo Stars will need to regroup quickly as they look to bounce back from this setback and continue their pursuit of league glory.
