Joel Ajayi
Future Guaranteed Football Club have emerged victorious in the maiden edition of the Rising Stars Football League. The club amassed a total of 52 points, securing the title and earning a Super Four ticket. This achievement will see them compete with three other clubs for the Super League title.
Future Guaranteed, New Dawn, and Chidex FA had already secured their top four spots before the final league day. The battle for the last spot was fierce between Delifresh FC, Master Class FC, and Bright Future Academy. Ultimately, Master Class clinched the final Super Four spot with a thrilling 2-1 win over Chidex FA. Although Bright Future Academy thrashed FC International 5-0, their efforts were in vain as it was too little, too late.
In the last match, Delifresh FC’s hope of securing the final spot were dashed after a 1-1 draw with Future Guarantee. This result, coupled with unfavorable outcomes in other matches, eliminated any remaining hope for Delifresh FC.
The league, played in a round-robin format, saw twelve teams—Delifresh FC, Emirates FC, Young Efficient, Master Class FC, FC International, Medical Strikers FC, Bright Future FC, Kolo Babes FC, New Dawn FC, F Liberty, Chidex FA, and Future Guaranteed—competing for top four spots and a chance to win the grand prize of eleven million naira (₦11,000,000).
