Match12 Aug 2026

Otutu Young sends Bayelsa United through

Cup ties wait for somebody to seize them, and Otutu Young obliged against Wikki Tourists. 1‑0 on the night, and the name in the next round’s hat is Bayelsa United.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

What a way to start for Otutu Young — 7.99

1 on the scoresheet on his first appearance and a mark of 7.99 beside it. Most debuts are got through; this one was enjoyed, by him and by everybody watching it.

Match12 Aug 2026

Bayelsa United win it in stoppage time

The board had gone up, the arguing had started, and then the ball was in the net in the 122th minute. Wikki Tourists will replay every second of the added time for a week.

Market17 Aug 2026

Bayelsa United say no — this time

The offer from Hearts of Oak for Chinedu Onyinjekwu was heard out and sent back the same day. First bids are rarely meant to succeed; they are meant to find out how loudly the door closes.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Nobody could get near Fabby Clark

Successful dribbles: 23. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

The terraces17 Aug 2026

The crowd has taken to Solomon Wegba

At 18 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Match15 Aug 2026

A bad afternoon for Bayelsa United against Barau

0‑1 to Barau, and no complaints worth printing. The performance asked for nothing more than it got.

Player ratings17 Aug 2026

Peter Ebimobowei ran the middle of the pitch — 6.74

He won it back and then made something of it, which is two jobs and the reason the scoreline looks the way it does. 10 combined actions and a mark of 6.74, and not one of them will make a highlights package.

Squad17 Aug 2026

A falling-out at Bayelsa United

Pinna Sagbamaowei and a teammate went at it, and not about football. Training grounds are small places and a long season makes them smaller.

The terraces10 Aug 2026

The crowd has taken to Okardi Inikurogha

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Match8 Aug 2026

Bayelsa United get the job done against Enyimba

A 1‑0 win over Enyimba, earned rather than given, and the sort of afternoon that sends everyone home talking about next week instead of this one.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Tempers go at Bayelsa United

Pinna Sagbamaowei was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

The afternoon belonged to Fabby Clark

A mark of 7.97, and nobody in the ground would argue with it. He was involved in everything that mattered and most of what did not.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Solomon Wegba stays put

“The easiest signature of my career.” Solomon Wegba and Bayelsa United agree another 4 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

Squad10 Aug 2026

Nupe Godstime falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

A satisfied Bright Omeruo

“The players deserve the credit. My job was easy today.” It was not, and everybody in the room knew it; after 1‑0, Bright Omeruo could afford to be generous.

Player ratings10 Aug 2026

Kenneth Sheddy beats them one at a time

Successful dribbles: 13. There was always a defender in front of him and there was never a defender in front of him for long.

The dugout10 Aug 2026

No hiding place for Fabby Clark

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Fabby Clark, and the manager let it.

In brief
