Magic Stars FC delivered a ruthless attacking display in their latest NYML NLO Division One fixture, securing a 5–0 victory over Synergy Ultimate in a performance headlined by what could be the fastest goal of the season.
Barely 48 seconds after the referee’s whistle, Sesan Israel sent shockwaves through the stadium with a composed finish to open the scoring — a contender for the quickest goal in this campaign. It was a sign of things to come, as Magic Stars FC controlled proceedings from start to finish.
The match’s momentum briefly paused in the second half when substitute Kalu Chisom squandered a golden chance in the 57th minute to double the advantage. But redemption came swiftly. Mere minutes later, Chisom found himself on the end of a slick attacking move and tapped in from close range, sending the home bench into celebration and doubling his side’s lead.
Midfield dominance and tactical discipline paved the way for further damage. In the 72nd minute, Ayuba Suleiman ghosted into the box and coolly dispatched a third, taking advantage of defensive indecision with clinical precision.
In-form striker Mba John, who found the net in the opening fixture, continued his fine run with an 84th-minute goal. His finish followed a fluid team sequence that cut through the opposition’s defence with ease.
With the game all but over, Ayuba Suleiman sealed the win in the 89th minute with his second goal of the day. A defensive lapse was all the invitation he needed to complete the 5–0 rout and secure a result that reinforces Magic Stars FC’s credentials as genuine promotion contenders.
Magic Stars FC’s growing reputation is no fluke. Their brand of fluid attacking football and defensive organisation is a reflection of international seasoning — most notably from their standout run at the Viareggio Cup in Italy earlier this year — and a development model that emphasises discipline and squad depth.
The team’s unbeaten run now stretches to nine matches across two seasons, further cementing their status as one of the league’s most consistent and dangerous sides.
