Nigeria Nationwide League One (NLO) side, Rolly FC has made history as the first team to go on a five-game winning streak in the Benin City Youth League, the first in the history of the competition.
The 2022 Edo State Bet9ja Super League finalists transitioned their fine form into the Benin City Youth League, dominating and showing their prowess as the best amateur team in the state.
Scoring a total of ten goals in six matches, the second highest in the competition so far, it wasn’t a delightful start for Rolly FC due to their NLO engagement far away in Bayelsa saw them forfeit their first game against Dynamo Academica. The 3-0 loss charged up Rolly FC who have now gone on a rampage, lashing and whitewashing teams they have come up against.
Currently placed second on the log with 15 points, the Roland Inonoje boys have defeated Union Sportive, Eagle Wings, True Worshippers, Benin Warrior and Bendel Insurance Feeders in their five-game winning streak run with Raymond scoring five of the 10 and Osazee, the most improved player so far in the tournament.
With what the new gaffer, Coach Ogenachukwu Chukwudi has done so far, supporters and fans of the club can testify to the transformation of the team’s pattern of play, transition, dictating the possession – ‘Tiki-Taka’ – which has translated to maximum points.
Rolly FC will hope to continue their fine form as they face fourth-placed Rockers, in their matchday seven encounter.
