Gwagwalada and Bwari qualifies For FCT Bocknor U-15 Champion Of Champions
Gwagwalada Area Council U15 will tackle their counterpart from Bwari Area Council at the Final of the maiden edition of Bocknor U15 Champion of Champions Football tournament in FCT.
The tournament which was played on round-robin basis in two centres of Gwagwalada and Bwari was organized by the FCT Chapter of the Nigeria Football Coaches Association.
In Gwagwalada zone where we have the likes of Kwali, Gwagwalada and Abaji Area Councils, Gwagwalada amassed the maximum six points in two games to finish on top of the table beating Abaji by a lone goal before dismissing Kwali with same number of goal.
In dramatic encounters at the Bwari Centre, host team Bwari and AMAC played out an unbelievable goalless draw in the first match with several chances begging to for convertion at both ends before Bwari edged Kuje by four goals to nil in the second match.
AMAC repeated the same score line against the Kuje lads in the last match of the day. This meant that both teams were tied on four points with equal number of goals scored.
However, disciplinary considerations came to play as the AMAC team earned more yellow cards than their Bwari counterparts who were been booked once.
The final of the tournament sponsored by Barrister Babatunde Akintade ( Bocknor) who is the North Central Representative on the NLO Board and also a Board member of the FCT Football Association.
The final which would be a mouth-watering one will hold on Saturday 2 November at the Area 3 playing pitch in the Federal Capital Territory.

Lawal Delivers Another Brilliant Performance in Europe
After displaying great form for Istra 1961against Vukovar in the score draw encounter in the elite league few days ago in Croatia, Salim Fago Lawal has continued to enjoy rave of the moment status in the Eastern European nation.
On Wednesday, Lawal was on the scores sheet for Istra in the 75th minute against Kurilovec, but it was only for consolation, as Istra crashed out of Croatian cup in round 16.
It was a masterpiece display from the former Flying Eagles striker, whose work rate has shown great development after joining Istra from modest Nigerian clubside in 2023.
He has scored three goals and two assists, totally five – goal contribution as a striker so far this season.
Interestingly, two other Flying Eagles players, Israel Ayuma and Charles Agada, who are also former players of Mavlon FC, featured in the game and they gave good account of themselves.
Sadly, it was not the day of victory on the pitch for the three former players of Mavlon FC of Lagos.
