Two goals in the first half by Tosin Oyedokun (3′) and Emmanuel Solomon (45+3′) gave the host a 2-1 first-half lead before Abdulmalik Olatunji (46′) and Ayomide Cole (71′) made sure of victory in an emphatic manner to secure their sixth home win and extend their unbeaten run to six games since they lost 2-1 at Enyimba at the end of October.

Ikorodu City looked to be destined for an instant return to the Nigeria National League after losing four of their first five games, but the Oga Boys began their resurgence with a 3-0 bashing of Bendel Insurance towards the middle of October and have now gone on to win five more games at home and one away from home.
