The Oga Boys struck early, with Salami Farouk heading home from a well-placed throw-in in the second minute. This goal gave Ikorodu City the momentum they needed, as Kwara United struggled to contain the attacking threat. Ikechukwu Junior extended the home side's lead in the 36th minute, scoring his third league goal of the season with another well-taken header. Kwara United fought hard to mount a comeback in the second half, but their efforts were in vain as Ikorodu City held on to secure a clean sheet and protect their lead.
