El-Kanemi Warriors go top in NPFL Group B, Bendel Insurance fail to beat Niger Tornadoes

El-Kanemi Warriors have momentarily moved to the summit of the Nigeria Professional Football League (NPFL) Group B table after playing out a 2-2 draw against Go Round in their Matchday 17 tie in Maiduguri on Saturday.

Sunday Anthony gave the Borno Army the lead in the 18th minute with a direct free-kick but the visitors pulled level just before the half-hour mark through Chiebonam Nwogbaga, with an assist from Philip David.

The hosts tried to get back in front in the 37th minute with a succession of shots but Go Round goalkeeper Godwin Dede denied the duo of Sunday Anthony and Yeful Anthony from shooting El-Kanemi Warriors back into the lead.
