#3 Afeez Olayami scores a marvellous equaliser for Colombo
A goal almost seemed inevitable. Considering the manner in which Colombo bounced back and applied persistent pressure. It eventually arrived at the half hour mark. Winger, Afeez Olayami picked up the ball from 25 yards out and ran with it. He zipped past Bikramjit like he wasn’t present and unleashed a venomous effort from an acute angle, the ball rifled into the top corner.
Bagan keeper, Shilton never saw that coming. The flight of the ball coupled with the glaring sunlight deceived him completely. From the right wing, Afeez didn’t have much space to play with. Having covered considerable distance, he eventually decided to try his luck rather than feed his teammates who were well placed inside the box. That goal had Gareth Bale written all over it.
