Three rounds are complete at the 2023 Nigeria Premier Football League (NPFL) “Super 6” playoff stage and there were no changes on the six-team table after Wednesday’s action featured all draws. Enyimba and Rivers United remain level at the top with five points each and Enyimba forward Sadiq Abubakar’s curling finish was the highlight of the day in a 1-1 draw against Bendel Insurance. Divine Nwachukwu equalized in the first half for Bendel to cancel out the opening goal from Abubakar and keep the Benin City club two points back of the leaders.
Remo Stars are level with Bendel Insurance on three points following a 1-1 draw with Sunshine Stars. Samuel Anakwe scored inside the opening fifteen minutes to give Remo Stars the lead. Despite looking like the more dangerous team throughout the match, Remo Stars conceded an equalizer to Sunshine Stars’ Lucky Emmanuel before a minute had elapsed in the second half.
