Following a soothing and electrifying finals greeted with colorful, eye-catching and exhilarating moments, Osun State Football Associations have rejoiced with Governor's Cup Champions, Lanreleke Sports Academy.
It was a fierce battle between Ataoja School of Science Osogbo and Lanreleke Sports Academy lle-Ogbo as the two sides imposed themselves in each half, with Ataoja primed to break the deadlock twenty minutes into the game but were unlucky as a classy defending from LSA defender averted a looming danger.
Moments before the regulation time, Ataoja had their goalkeeper to thank following consecutive audacious saves with gusto as LSA rampaging front men piled pressures and kept firing missiles at the opponents but all to no avail. It was an afternoon to remember for LSA lads who were faultless during the lottery of penalties.
"This accomplishment draws out your thrill seeker state of mind and rouses others to think ambitiously, past your capacity. Today you win the race, simply because you trust you can win despite numerous challenges. I salute your courage, strength and confidence, congratulations to Lanreleke Sports Academy Family.
"It's so fascinating seeing how Coach Yomi Elijah led organisers had a unique tourney with professional touch. We cherish the atmosphere and the purpose the tourney is intended to serve. It's an avenue for private partners to come on board. It's indeed a new dawn in Osun Football." Mayor Sola Fanawopo submitted.
