The friendly match between Phoenix Athletic Sports Club, aado Ekiti and Rajyy Football Club of Ikere Ekiti decided on Saturday at the Oluyemi Kayode Stadium in Ado Ekiti ended in favour of Rajyy FC, 3-1.

Phoenix ASC had a very bright start in the first 45 minutes as the Coach Bola led side scored the first goal of the encounter in the 34th minute.

Few minutes later Rajyy FC ran riot of their opponents’ defence ensuring they restored parity ending the first half 1-1.

The second half was more of a one sided game just as PASC struggled to maintain possession with the midfield duo of Dotun Aladejana and Damilola Adeyeye.

At exactly 60mins, Rajyy FC scored the third goal of the match to lead for the first time while they continue to dominate play.

A string of errors committed by PASC backline gave Rajyy FC the advantage of playing on the front foot leading to a spot kick converted by the Ikere team when Tijani Azeez pulled an opponent in the area.

As soon as fatigue set in PASC could not add the second as the match ended 3-1 in favour of Rajyy FC.
