The tough final duel between Bullets Babes of Badagry and Paul Boys of Aboru in Lagos ended in stalemate, but the spot-kicks favoured the boys from Badagry thanks to their goalkeeper, Anime Ebube, who saved two of the penalties to give his side the much-desired 3-1 victory to lift the gold trophy and the winning prize of N350,000, while Paul Boys received the sum of N250, 000 The third-placed match played earlier produced nine goals thriller between Loko Babes and Solution Boys. Loko Babes, however, carried the day in the tie that ended 5-4 in their favour. They pocketed the sum of N200,000, while Solution Boys received N150,000. Founder and CEO of the sponsor company, JOF Nigeria Limited, Mr Olusegun Olugboyegun described the performance of the finalists as exemplary, adding that the boys need support for them to hone their skills in the game as the future is bright ahead. "There are different ways to make it in life. You either get to the top through education or through your talent. In our case, we are helping to build the talent of these boys in football and with what I saw here during the final match, I could see that we are doing the right thing because these boys are full of football talent and I could see them going places in the game," Olugboyegun said. He reiterated the plan of his company to partner with the Lagos State Grassroots Soccer Association to continue with the organisation of the youth football competition. David Atolagbe of Loko Babes with his eight goals in his kitty won the Highest Goal Scorer award, Paul Boys' Bakare Quyyun won the Best Goalkeeper award, while Daniel Cosmos of Bullet Babes won the Most Valuable Player (MVP).
