Ibrahim Ogunjobi could not have asked for more on his first appearance — 7.64
Debuts are survived rather than enjoyed. This one was enjoyed: 7.64, 1 goals, and a manager already being asked whether he starts again next week.

Samuel Anakwe was unplayable
Successful dribbles: 19. He went past people as if he had been told there was a prize for it, and by the end the full-back had stopped pretending to try.

Words at Remo Stars training over how hard people work

Ospina Egbe stays put
“The easiest signature of my career.” Ospina Egbe and Remo Stars agree another 1 years, and the manager can plan around him rather than about him.

The view from the dugout
“We did not lose. Some weeks that is all you get, and I would rather have the point than not.” Adebayo Balogun chose the glass-half-full version of 1‑1; the supporters left with the other one.
In brief
- Market Ospina Egbe brings the grey hairs Remo Stars lacked
- The dugout Olamilekan Adedayo does not fit this one
