Enyimba and Sunshine Stars settled for a draw on Wednesday at Aba’s Enyimba International Stadium in a rescheduled Nigeria Premier Football League NPFL game.
Despite multiple attempts, neither team was able to score, and the game ended in a goalless tie. Enyimba, also referred to as the People’s Elephant, came into the game in seventh place with a record of five victories, seven draws, and two defeats.
Their progress in the league standings has been hampered by the team’s inability to turn draws into wins.
Sunshine Stars, on the other hand, are currently in the bottom of the table with a similar record of five wins, three draws, and eight losses, suggesting that they need to improve in their next games.
.Both teams put up a strong defensive effort during the game.
The Sunshine Stars’ offensive attempts were repelled by Enyimba’s defence, and the visitors also stopped a number of goal-scoring chances the home club generated.
Both sides have struggled to find consistent form throughout the season, as evidenced by the lack of goals.
The outcome keeps Enyimba in the running for a higher league spot, but they will need to turn their draws into victories in order to move up the standings.
However, in order to get out of the relegation zone, Sunshine Stars will need to regroup and fix their flaws.
