There were plenty positives Saturday at Rojenny Stadium, Oba, near Onitsha, as the ongoing maiden edition of Maureen Mmadu Talents Hunt program entered day two.
Six teams were on the fixtures card for the and after watching the the three games, Dan Eggen, the Norwegian Scout, said he is facing selection headache.
“Yeah, there’re talents here that I’ve seen. I’m impressed. But selection isn’t easy because that’s based on there different age categories”, a visibly delighted Eggen said, obviously pleased with the weather condition of the day and the players performances that really gave him something to cheer.
Anambra Rovers and GPworld got the day’s business underway after an earlier delay.
Rovers roved and thrilled, caressing the ball like midnight lovers, much to the admiration of Eggen and other spectators, predominantly footballers.
Rovers ran out 3-1 winners.
Thereafter, St Nwadinso, an NLO side, mounted the big Rojenny Stadium stage, squeezed one past Dynamic FA.
Dosad FA and Anambra U15 got the afternoon’s business to a fitting close. Dosad won 1-0.
The exercise continues today, 15 September, 2024, with Day Three fixtures.
