<br>After a cagey first half that saw both teams struggle to convert chances, Ikorodu City came alive thanks to key tactical changes. Midfield dynamo Waliu Ojetoye was forced off just before the break due to injury, prompting coach-led substitutions that introduced Adewale Adebayo and Ayo Cole to the midfield engine room. |

<br>The breakthrough came in the 53rd minute when Harrison Austin scored directly from a corner kick—a moment of brilliance that ignited the crowd. Moments later, Sola doubled the lead with a composed finish off an Emmanuel Solomon assist. From there, Ikorodu City controlled proceedings and won in style. |
