Soccer For All (SFA) hosted Clement FC at the University of Ibadan on 13 February 2026, with kick-off at 5:00pm, in an 11-a-side contest that ended in a 2-2 stalemate after 90 minutes of intense football. The match showcased a competitive battle between two evenly matched sides, neither able to claim full points on the day.
SFA lined up in a classic 4-3-3 formation, deploying four defenders across the backline, three midfielders tasked with both defensive cover and creative duties, and a front three expected to stretch the opposition and provide goal threats. The defensive unit was set to maintain solidity and discipline, while the midfield trio aimed to control possession and link play effectively. Up front, the wide attackers and central striker were to combine pace and skill to unsettle Clement FC’s defence. No substitutes were named for SFA ahead of the match.
The first half unfolded with both sides probing cautiously, seeking to establish rhythm and control. Despite chances on either end, neither team managed to break the deadlock before the half-time whistle at 45 minutes, leaving the scoreline locked at 0-0. The midfield battle was particularly intense, with both teams vying to dominate the central areas.
In the second half, the game opened up considerably as SFA and Clement FC traded blows in a more open contest. The deadlock was finally broken, with SFA finding the net twice, only for Clement FC to respond with two goals of their own, ensuring the match ended all square at 2-2. The goals came from well-worked moves and individual moments of quality, reflecting the attacking intent of both sides.
Akintomide Akinbola stood out as the player of the match, impressing with his influence and contributions throughout the 90 minutes. His performances in midfield were pivotal in both defensive duties and initiating attacks, marking him as a key figure in SFA’s efforts.
Ultimately, the draw was a fair reflection of the contest, with both teams demonstrating resilience and attacking verve. The 4-3-3 formation allowed SFA to balance defensive stability with offensive enterprise, but Clement FC’s response ensured that neither side could claim victory on this occasion at the University of Ibadan.
