Palladan United began their campaign in the ongoing Ahmadu Bello University (ABU) Vice-Chancellor’s Cup with a convincing 4–1 victory over Marine Football Academy in the opening match of the tournament.
The encounter, played with high intensity, saw Marine FA display determination and flashes of creativity but fail to convert their chances against a more composed Palladan United side. The victors capitalised on defensive lapses to establish a commanding lead that Marine struggled to overturn.
Palladan United’s tactical discipline and clinical finishing proved decisive, as they dominated possession and maintained pressure throughout the match. Marine’s only goal came as a consolation after several attempts to break through Palladan’s organised defence.
Speaking after the game, supporters commended Marine FA’s resilience despite the loss, noting their fighting spirit and teamwork. The team will now shift focus to their next group-stage encounter, aiming to correct their mistakes and bounce back stronger in the competition.
