Final; in enemy territory [2]
BAM!
The sound reverberated through this stadium, briefly silencing the noise made by the fans as the ball flew like a rocket.
It was a powerful shot from the stocky Wydad AC center midfielder.
The ball rose high and accurately towards the top right corner of the Enyimba FC net, but Ojo was on top of his game, rising high into the air on a full stretch dive as he did it, barely pushing the ball into the post as it bounced back on a rebound.
All the players in the box reacted immediately, scrambling for the loose ball but the Wydad center forward got there first as this player shot despite the fact that an Enyimba FC defender tugged on him from behind.
Another defender put his body on the line, blocking the shot but right after was when this player fell on the ground due to the tug on his shirt.
Then, incredibly…
FWEEEE!
The referee blew his whistle for a penalty kick.
