Dino SC secured a 2-0 win over Imperial at the Dipo Dina Stadium in Ijebu Ode.
Being a matchweek 15 fixture, with three more games to end the season, it became a significant fixture for the inconsistent lions and their highflying opponents.
It was Dino who took the game by the scruff of its neck as they scored twice in a matter of minutes to go in front. Ikechukwu Friday opened the scoring in the 13 minute, before Pascal Chukwudi doubled the home side’s lead four minutes after the half-hour mark.
They kept that result until full-time as the visitors failed to find their rhythm throughout the game. Dino reached the 30-point mark by virtue of the win, while Imperial stay fourth and six points adrift of the top three.
