Cup progress for Plateau United
A 1‑0 win over Shooting Stars, a place in the next round, and the quiet arithmetic every supporter does on the walk home: how many more until a final?

A one-man rearguard from John Amah
There were 9 saves in it, and at least three that had no business being saves at all. The ten outfield players owe him a drink and they know it.

Vincent Temitope breaks El-Kanemi Warriors hearts
Some goals win a match and some take one off somebody else. Vincent Temitope scored in the 85th minute, El-Kanemi Warriors had already begun thinking about the journey home, and Plateau United took the lot.

A debut Ashiru Musa will not forget — 7.21
There is exactly one of these per career and it does not usually go like this. 0 on the scoresheet, 7.21 beside the name, and a crowd that had never seen him before chanting it by the end.

Isandu Danjuma, 17, plays like he has been here for years — 8.04

Kazeem Adeyanju runs at them all day
Successful dribbles: 21. There is a particular sort of despair on a full-back's face by the seventieth minute, and it was on display.

Vincent Temitope was on a different afternoon to everybody else
9.16. There are performances a supporter describes to somebody who was not there and cannot quite convey; this was one, and the number does not help either.
