The introduction of Utomi Godstime in the 60th minute added more bite as the Diminutive Striker gave the Galilee Defense a nightmare.
Emmanuel Emefiele connecting flick from Utomi Godstime Cross was saved on the line by Goalkeeper Ojo .
Emefiele was not to be denied in the 78th minute after a KG build up found Thompson Iyare and the left Winger crossed was cut back by Utomi Godstime for Emefiele to fire home for the second goal.
Utomi was brought down in the box and Emefiele stood to take the penalty but again Ojo Oluwaseyi saved to deny the teenager is second goal.
Utomi Godstime thought he had scored after Skipper Joseph Ukah cut back for the striker to tap in only for Referee Michael Ovwiroro to rule it as offside.
