Akwa United taste defeat, but end the season high

The Nigerian premier league champions Akwa United were defeated by Lobi Stars right at the end of 2020/2021 season.

Despite the 2-1 loss away at Markudi, they were still few points ahead of the second placed team, Enyimba who pick up a much needed victory away to Dakkada.

Winning their first premier league titles in twenty five years, it’s a celebration mode despite the defeat.

Akwa United finish the season with 71 pts, and also pick up a champions league ticket for next season.

Kennedy Boboye was celebrated for achieving that feat with Akwa United, which he did few seasons ago with Plateau United.
