Bayelsa United Held To Frustrating Draw By Shooting Stars

Bayelsa United failed to ease their relegation worries as they were held to a frustrating 0-0 draw at home to Shooting Stars on Wednesday.

However, the eagerly anticipated clash developed into somewhat of a war of attrition with few clear-cut chances, although the hosts will feel they perhaps had the better opportunities at the Oghara Township Stadium.

Shooting Stars goalkeeper Affesoh Attah made smart saves to deny the Restoration Boys from causing the damage.

United arguably edged the play for larger parts of the match, but their hopes were hindered.

The Oluyole Warriors came close to snatching a winner when Najeem Olukokun headed a cross over the bar.

With this result, Shooting Stars are unbeaten under recently appointed coach Gbenga Ogunbote, who has tinkered the club to one win and one draw.
