Shooting Stars, Wikki Push For Promotion

Shooting Stars and Wikki
Tourists are leading the respective divisions of the Nigeria National League as the race for promotion to the top flight gathers steam.
Shooting Stars Sports Club (3SC) of Ibadan continued their steady push to return to the elite division next season with a 2-0 home win over closest rivals Gabros in a Week 28 match last Wednesday.
The encounter produced a lot of anxious moments for both teams but it was the home team who found the net of the visitors twice just as the local derby between Stationery Stores and First Bank went the way of the Bankers who ran away 1-0 winners.
In Division A of the NNL, Wikki Tourists of Bauchi maintained their grip on the top ladder with a lone goal win over DSS of Kaduna.
But frontrunners Mighty Jets of Jos suffered a 1-0 defeat at the hands of Niger Tornadoes, who are equally pushing to get back to the Premier League cadre.
Elsewhere, most of the home teams won big against their visitors as Plateau United hammered hapless Sokoto United 3-0.
Mountain of Fire and Miracle of Lagos thrashed Ekiti United 3-0  while Jigawa Golden Stars walloped Nigerian Prisons FC 3-1.
