Enugu Rangers
Nigerian amateur team, Crime Busters, inside the main bowl of the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium at the weekend defeated Rangers 2-1 to win Enugu State’s Federation Cup.
It was really a bad day at the office for the coach Olugbenga Ogunbote’ wards, who took an early lead through Uche Nwofor, but could not contain their more determined opponents.
