Stoppage-Time Drama Seals Rivers United’s 3-2 Federation Cup Win Over Rangers

Rivers United edged Enugu Rangers 3-2 in a thrilling President Federation Cup Round of 32 tie at Godswill Akpabio Stadium in Uyo. Chijioke Mbaoma gave Rivers an early lead in the fifth minute and Wisdom Samuel made it 2-0 before half-time. Rangers responded after the break with a Godwin Obaje penalty and a quick equaliser by Precious Agu. Deep into stoppage time, substitute Handsome Surveyor capitalised on a goalkeeper’s mistake to snatch victory. Coach Finidi George praised his side’s resilience and now looks ahead to the Round of 16 showdown with Nasarawa United.
