AAYK FC QUALIFY FOR NLO OSUN PLAYOFFS AFTER DRAMATIC VICTORY OVER HAMMOLA FC

Odekunle David's Heroics Send AAYK FC Through as Oduduwa Centre Champions

AAYK Football Club successfully sealed qualification for the Osun State Playoffs of the 2026 Nationwide League One (NLO) after a hard-fought 1-0 victory over fellow title contenders Hammola FC in a winner-takes-all encounter at the Oduduwa College Centre, Ile-Ife.

The decisive victory capped an outstanding regular season campaign for AAYK FC, who finished the competition with seven consecutive victories and an unbeaten record, securing top spot at the Oduduwa Centre.

Heading into the final day, the stakes could not have been higher. While Hammola FC required only a draw to progress on goal difference, AAYK FC knew that nothing short of victory would secure qualification. The players responded magnificently, producing a disciplined, determined, and courageous performance when it mattered most.

The opening exchanges reflected the significance of the occasion, with both teams showing caution and tactical discipline. AAYK FC nearly found an early breakthrough in the 10th minute when in-form striker Makinde Iyanuoluwa connected well inside the penalty area, only to be denied by an excellent save from the Hammola goalkeeper.

As the contest intensified, AAYK FC remained compact and organized defensively. Ebere Agwu produced a vital clearance midway through the first half to deny Hammola FC a dangerous opportunity, ensuring the score remained level.

The first half ended goalless, setting up a tense and dramatic final 45 minutes with qualification hanging in the balance.

After the restart, AAYK FC gradually increased the pressure, pushing forward in search of the goal that would define the club's season. The breakthrough finally arrived in the 78th minute through substitute Odekunle David Julius.

Following a brilliantly delivered set-piece from Akorede Adeleke, David rose highest inside the penalty area and powered a magnificent header into the roof of the net, sending the AAYK FC bench and supporters into celebration. It was a goal worthy of the occasion and one that ultimately secured qualification.

The closing stages demanded resilience, concentration, and composure from the entire team. The players rose to the challenge superbly, protecting their advantage and preserving another valuable clean sheet until the final whistle.

When the referee signaled the end of the match, scenes of joy erupted as AAYK FC officially secured a place in the Osun State Playoffs and completed a remarkable regular-season campaign.

Attention now turns to the next challenge as AAYK FC prepares to face the winners of the Ile Ogbo Centre in a playoff showdown that will determine the overall NLO champions in Osun State and move one step closer to the dream of promotion.

The journey continues, and AAYK FC remains focused, united, and determined to make history.
