Waco Football Academy have emerged as champions of the 2021 Abuja U17 youth league after defeating Prime Stars FA 1-0 on Thursday evening, Sports247 reports.
Waco F.A needed a late goal to win the tight encounter at the Area 3 Mini Stadium which confirms them as the winners of the first edition of the FCT regional youth football tournament.
The result means Waco finishes in the first position in the six-team table with 19 points, the same as Abees F.A in the second but with a superior goal difference. Abees F.A defeated Basic Maracana 4-0 earlier in the day but ends in second place due to an inferior goal difference to Waco.
Horvel Prime F.A (3rd), Prime Stars F.A (4th), Basic Maracana FC (5th), and FC International (6th) make up the complete standings.
All six teams played a total of 10 matches each (home & away). The tournament which was organized by the FCT Football Association kicked off in early April.
