NPFL: Heartland Breaks Jinx With Victory Over 3SC

Heartland FC beat Shooting Stars 2-0 in an NPFL Week 12 game to record their first away win in four years.

The Naze Millionaire signaled their intention to cart away all three points on offer when Jolly Osas put them in the lead as early as the 3rd minute.

The Owerri-based club took their advantage into the break as their hosts failed to get an equaliser with Gbolaham Salami guilty of fluffing several begging chances.

Heartland put the game beyond the hosts when Ebere Odiche scored in the 68th minute to seal the impressive away win signaling the end of a four-year jinx.

Shooting Stars had picked their first point on the road last Sunday, after holding Sharks FC to a goalless draw in Port Harcourt.
