In an exciting display of skill and teamwork, Stallion FC, the American University of Nigeria's (AUN) male soccer team, emerged victorious in a friendly football match against Air Force FC, Yola. The match, held on April 4 at the AUN GTBank football field, saw Stallion FC secure a narrow 2-1 win over their opponents.
Bulus Isa Musa, a computer science major at AUN, was the star of the match. He scored both goals for the Stallions in the first half, earning him the title of Man of the Match. Air Force FC managed to pull one goal back in the second half but couldn’t find an equalizer despite their spirited effort.
This match was a return leg, following a 1–1 draw earlier at Air Force FC’s home ground. Speaking after the match, AUN Stallion FC head coach, Sadiq Yahaya Ado, expressed pride in his team's performance. He added that the match provided a great opportunity for both teams to showcase their talents. I’m proud of our players, especially considering many of them had just returned from the Sallah break and didn’t have much time to train.”
