The young Harmony Boys defeated the young Elephants 2-0 at the Mobolaji Johnson Arena, Onikan, Lagos, following two quick first-half goals by Ayodeji Abayomi.
The first goal came within 60 seconds of play following a deflection to the Aba side net after a shot by Abayomi.
The second goal came before the 10th minute after a fine teamwork by Kwara United, which saw Abayomi in a good position to score his second of the day.
