The second quarter-final second leg match between Sunshine Stars and Osun United in Ijebu-Ode produced an exciting outcome and four well-taken goals after a goalless first 45 minutes.
Sunshine Stars leading scorer this season Ajibola Otegbeye got his team's noses in front with a poacher's finish inside the box after Osun United failed to clear their lines. His goal temporarily put the Akure Gunners on level terms at 1-1 aggregate.
Fourteen minutes to the end of the contest, Tosin Omoyele scored a vital away goal for Osun United by powering the ball with his head past Henry Ayodele. It was the second time the young striker would score against their much illustrious opponents over two legs.
Sikiru Alimi made no error from the spot to give Sunshine Stars the lead on the day but on aggregate it was 2-2 with Osun United having the advantage of the away goal.
Just as Osun United thought they could hold on for the last six minutes of the game, Otegbeye popped up with the third goal to ensure Sunshine Stars squeeze into the last four.
The fourth quarter-final between Akwa United and Katsina Feeders will take place on Sunday, starting with the first leg. (Owngoal.com)
