MFM cut the gap between them and group leaders Plateau United to 2points after their victory over ABS at the Agege stadium on Sunday.
Austine Ogunye’s penalty and Sikiru Olatunbosun’s goal in the 66th minute helped the team to a 2-1 win over ABS in one of Sunday’s Nigeria Professional Football League games.
With the win, the Lagos side are now two points adrift of leaders Plateau United who lost 1-0 at El-Kanemi Warriors. Plateau United were five points clear at the top of the log prior to this weekend’s games.
MFM has bounced back from their poor second half last season which almost got them relegated; their victory over ABS puts them in a strong position for the League title.
