It was a dream start for new head coach, Ortega Deniran, as Warri Wolves shared the spoils with Adamawa United in a six-goal thriller on Matchday 22 of the Nigeria Professional Football League, NPFL, on Sunday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Two minutes into the game, Stanley Otu poked home a Stephen Eregare cross to put the Seasiders in the lead.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Seven minutes later, Anayo Ogbonna leveled terms for the Yola side to the utter disappointment of the visitors.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Wolves went back into the lead again, when Williams Sunday profited from a defensive error inside the box and scored.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

But that lead did not last, as United came back to reckoning again with an Anayo Ogbonna equalizer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Four minutes after the resumption of the second half, Efe Yarhere arrived the box at right time to finish off a fine move and send Warri Wolves into the lead for umpteenth time in the encounter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Inside the final quarter of an hour, Idris Abubakar took a swing from outside the box and beat Warri Wolves’ goalkeeper John Lawrence, to tie the match at 3 – 3 at the end of the 90 minutes duration.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speaking after the game, the chief executive officer of the club, Etu Moses, praised the team for putting in a decent shift during the game.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“It was a good game,” he says.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The boys gave it their all. But there’s need for more work in the next game against Lobi.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

“The battle continues. It’s not over yet.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He gave the team a cash reward of one hundred and fifty thousand naira.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Warri Wolves will next play Lobi Stars of Makurdi on Wednesday, May 26 on Matchday 23 at the Delta State Polytechnic Stadium in Ozoro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
