The second game in match day two of the Nigeria National League Super 4 saw Bendel Insurance beat Bayelsa United by a lone goal at the Samson Siasia Stadium, Yenegoa on Thursday.
Austin Ogunye's 82nd-minute goal was all Bendel Insurance needed to get their first win in the NNL Super 4.
Bayelsa United, following their disappointing draw to Doma United on Wednesday sought to get their first win in order to set their campaign in good motion.
But it was not to be as United were below par against a Benin Arsenal side that played better for most of the encounter.
After missed chances especially by Insurance, it was not until the 82nd minute before Ogunye watered the ground with his goal.
Divine Nwachukwu ran through the left flank, crossed into the box, Ogunye missed his first shot, but he rose fast to put in the rebound.
The Restoration Boys held to the solitary goal to win.
They play Doma United next on Friday for a likely second match win as the push to win the league.
