Bendel Insurance Midfielder Ezekiel Tamara remains hopeful despite draw

Ezekiel Tamara, the midfielder for Bendel Insurance, expressed his disappointment after the team’s draw against Akwa United but remains hopeful that they will return to their winning form.

During the Nigeria Premier Football League matchday five fixture at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium on Saturday, the Benin Arsenals were held to a draw by Akwa United. This result marked the first time Bendel Insurance dropped points at home this season.

He performed exceptionally well and was recognized as the Man of the Match for his outstanding efforts.

Reflecting on the match, Tamara shared his thoughts on his X handle: “Not the result we wanted, but it’s part of the game. To the fans of the club and to the entire Edo State community, we promise to give you the smiles you all deserve. First Man of the Match of the season.”
