Team Lagos beat Team Ekiti 3-2 on
penalties on Thursday to lift the maiden Fountain Youth Sports Club Soccer
Tournament (FOYSSTON) in a hard fought contest at the Sports Complex of Federal
Polytechnic Ado-Ekiti.
The finals leave up to expectations
with the game decided on penalties after full time ended goalless.
The game was overly physical with
loads of rough tackles and both sides played with a determined attitude.
The tournament was designed as a
recruiting ground to fish out hidden talents that will dorn the colour of
Nationwide League One side, Fountain Youths Sports Club of Ado Ekiti.
However, a total of thirty-two
players was short-listed for the next phase of the team screening exercise.
Meanwhile, Fountain Youths FC boss,
Bayo Olanlege, has described the tournament as a huge success stressing that
the players picked will go through rigorous screening exercise and the lucky
ones will form the bedrock of the team when the Nationwide League kicks off.
