FC IFEANYIUBAH IS IN FINAL
FC IfeanyiUbah will play in the final of this year’s Nigeria Federation Cup after they went past giant killers Crown FC 2-1 in Kaduna Wednesday.
They will slug it out with the winners of the second semifinal between Enyimba and Nasarawa United with the eventual winners of this cup competition representing Nigeria in next year’s CAF Confederation Cup.

IfeanyiUbah, with their wealthy club owner watching from the stands, then took the lead in the 56th minute through a penalty which was converted by Cameroonian midfielder Tamen Medrano.
What would have been an equaliser by Crown in 86th minute by Yakubu Ahmed, was ruled off by the referee, who was subsequently attacked by angry fans.
But after this disruption, play continued for ‘The Anambra Warriors’ IfeanyiUbah to shoot to the cup final.
