Solution FC Edge Rovers FC 3–2 in Thrilling Encounter

Posted : 05 January 2026

Solution FC kicked off the new year in impressive fashion, securing a hard-fought 3–2 victory over Rovers FC of Cross River State in a thrilling Matchday 8 fixture of the 2025/2026 Nigeria National League (NNL) season at the Awka City Stadium.

The home side took an early lead when Moses Amanekwe fired Solution FC ahead in the 25th minute, but the advantage proved short-lived as Tony Ayang restored parity for Rovers FC in the 52nd minute, setting up a gripping second half.

Solution FC regained the lead seven minutes later through Henry Obasi, only for Ayang to strike again with a simple tap-in to level the scores once more and swing momentum in favour of the visitors.

Rovers FC then had a golden opportunity to take the lead from the penalty spot, but goalkeeper Matthias Malech produced a superb save to deny Ayang and keep Solution FC in the contest.

The hosts capitalised on the momentum shift, with Valentine Ugwu netting the decisive goal in the 80th minute to seal a crucial victory. Malech’s outstanding performance earned him the Man of the Match award.

Solution FC will now travel to Lagos for their final fixture of the first stanza, where they will face Sporting Lagos on Saturday, January 10, 2026, at the Mobolaji Johnson Sports Arena.
