Remo Stars Stadium, Ikenne

 

A place in the final awaits the winner of the first semi-final of the TCC Cup clash between Dino SC and defending champions Gbagada on Sunday. Quite a spectacle to look forward to after the completion of the league campaign. 

 

Dino finished top of their group despite losing the first game to Valiant FC. A run of three consecutive wins including the one in the last group match against last year’s losing finalists Beyond Limits. Since then, they have been on the rise and they went on to finish second in the league.

 

On the part of Gbagada, they remain the only unbeaten side left in the competition and are yet to lose any TCC Cup game since its inception. The defending champions finished behind the Lions in the league and will need to be wary of their threat when they meet this Sunday.

 

In their two previous meetings this term, Dino won 2-0 in Lagos, while the return leg played in Ijebu Ode ended in an entertaining 3-3 draw. However, this will be their first ever meeting in the cup competition.
