Emmanuel Ogbole strikes again, reaches double-digit milestone
Olympic Azzawiya SC cruised to a commanding 3-1 home win against Al Bashayer, with Emmanuel Ogbole setting the ball rolling early.
The Nigerian striker opened the scoring in the 19th minute when he capitalised on a goalkeeper error, bouncing on a loose ball to give his team the lead.
This marks his second consecutive game on the scoresheet, following his goal in the 2-0 away victory over Al Nahda Sahba.
Recall that his 26th-minute strike laid the foundation before Omar Areibi doubled the advantage in the second half.
However, Al Bashayer briefly threatened a comeback when Anis Makraz pulled one back nine minutes before regulation time.
But it proved to be only a consolation goal, as Olympic Azzawiya sealed the deal in added time, with Zakaria Al Haraish restoring their two-goal cushion.
The former NPFL star has now scored three goals in four starts for Olympic Azzawiya SC.
More significantly, this latest goal took his overall tally to 10 for the season—his first-ever double-digit milestone.
Olympic Azzawiya extend unbeaten streak as Ogbole shines
With this victory, Olympic Azzawiya SC extended their unbeaten run to 13 matches, recording 10 wins and three draws.
They have also won five straight games as they strengthen their position at the top of the Group 3 table with 33 points—six clear of second-placed Asswehly, who have two games in hand.
After the game, Emmanuel Ogbole, who couldn’t contain his joy, took to social media to express his gratitude:
“Another goal… happy to reach my first-ever double-digit goals in my career… Thank you, Lord Jesus. 10 goals… 7 goals with Kwara United and 3 goals with the Blue Castle Olympic… still focused.”
With his confidence soaring, Ogbole will look to build on this momentum as Olympic Azzawiya pushes for league glory.
