Sporting Stay In Touch With Beyond Limits After Crucial Win Over Broad City

Sporting Lagos edged Broad City 1-0 at the Legacy Pitch to move within touching distance of Beyond Limits on the TCC League standings over the weekend.

Broad City are the home side for this contest, which was a must-win game for the visitors after Beyond Limits clinched a comfortable win at Dino 24 hours earlier.

It was a tight contest between the two sides, with the away side creating most of the chances. If not for the brilliance of goalkeeper Okoeghene Isaac between the sticks for the Citizens, Sporting would have wrapped up the game before the break.

He made crucial stops in both halves to restrict the goal to just one for Micah Bello’s side.

In the end, the visitors held on to their lead from the first half to clinch a crucial win on the road and keep their title push alive.
