After scoring against Rivers United in Matchday 17 of the Nigeria Premier football league, Gombe United FC forward, Wasiu Alalade was on the scoresheet again for his team on Saturday, as they were humbled by Rangers international of Enugu 4-1 at the Nnamdi Azikiwe Stadium, Enugu, platinumnewsng.com is reporting.
Wasiu opened the matchday 18 encounter with his goal at the cathedral with a fine finish from in the 19th minute of the game after to put the visitors ahead.
The visitors lead didn’t however last long as Godwin Obaje’s double in the 21st and 39th minute ensured that the home team went into the break with the lead.
Chukwudi Nwaodu extended the lead for Rangers in the second half just 2 minutes after the hour mark, before Kenechukwu Augustine Agu sealed the game with his 83rd minute strike.
Wasiu who was obviously an unhappy man at full time blamed his team’s defeat to fatigue, assuring that his team’s next game against Bayelsa United FC at home is a most win.
