Former Super Eagles goalkeeper Dele Aiyenugba put up another splendid display on Sunday in the NPFL as he was solid in goal for Kwara United in their barren draw against MFM at the Agege Stadium.
The veteran shot-stopper with his display at the Soccer Temple has now produced four clean sheets in four games with the Afonja Warriors.
Impressive performance from Dele Aiyenugba in Lagos.
Four clean sheets in four games. Agba awo.
