Sporting Lagos suffered their fourth straight defeat on Wednesday, falling to Enyimba 3-2 in a match that compounded Enyimba's early-season struggles, according to PUNCH Sports Extra. The Nigerian club took the lead in the 44th minute through Stanley Dimgba, but Sporting Lagos responded strongly after the break. Abdullahi equalized for Sporting Lagos in the 51st minute, and Tobi Iyanda added a penalty for Enyimba three minutes later.
However, Haruna Hadi and Daniel Aboh scored two quick goals for Sporting Lagos in the 65th and 71st minutes to secure their second win of the season. Enyimba now sits at the bottom of the table after four matches, their poor start further exacerbated by the off-field crisis surrounding the club. For Sporting Lagos, the victory came after a 1-0 home defeat to Abia Warriors on Sunday and lifted them into mid-table.
