2025/2026 NPFL Matchday 24: Barau FC’s Discipline Sees Off Ikorodu City

Posted : 03 February 2026

Barau FC produced a tactically disciplined performance to secure a valuable 1–0 victory over Ikorodu City FC at the Danbatta Township Stadium, extending the Oga Boys’ frustrating run without an away win in the 2025/2026 Nigeria Premier Football League season.

While Ikorodu City arrived in Kano with confidence built on strong home performances, it was the rejuvenated Maliya Boys who displayed greater organisation, determination, and game intelligence to claim all three points in this Matchday 24 encounter.

The defining moment came in the 27th minute when Uche Moses capitalized on a close-range opportunity, blasting a powerful effort into the roof of the net to give Barau the lead. The goal lifted the home supporters and immediately forced Ikorodu City into a more aggressive approach.

Despite enjoying more possession and introducing several attacking substitutions in the second half, Ikorodu City struggled to break through Barau’s well-structured defensive setup. The hosts remained compact, disciplined, and calm under pressure, frustrating all attempts to find a way back into the game.

Barau’s ability to manage the tempo and defend intelligently in the closing stages proved decisive, as they absorbed late pressure to preserve their slender advantage.

The result marks one of Barau FC’s most significant victories of the campaign, boosting their morale and league standing, while Ikorodu City’s persistent away struggles continue to undermine their ambitions this season.
