In a gripping encounter at the U.J. Esuene Stadium during Week 6 of the 2024/25 Nigeria National League, Rovers FC battled Madiba FC to a 1-0 victory, thanks to a dramatic last-minute goal from the versatile defender, Oluwaseun Oloke. The match, which saw both teams deliver an exciting display of football from defense to attack, was a testament to the skill and determination of both sides.

The first half ended in a goalless stalemate, with both teams defending resolutely and creating a handful of scoring opportunities. It wasn’t until the 89th minute that the deadlock was broken. A well-timed assist from Simeone Umeh found Oloke, who, displaying his trademark composure, slotted the ball into the net, securing all three points for Rovers FC.

Speaking after the match, Oloke expressed his gratitude to God for the opportunity to score the crucial goal. "I’m thankful to God for giving me the chance to contribute to the team’s success. It was a hard-fought game, but we stuck together and got the result we wanted," Oloke said.

Oloke’s performance on the pitch highlighted his versatility and experience, as he is capable of playing across the defense in various positions – central back, right back, and left back.

Over the years, he has proven to be a dependable figure in the backline, contributing both defensively and offensively for his teams.

Throughout his career, Oloke has had stints at several top clubs, including Prime FC and Lobi Stars FC in Nigeria, as well as Avrankou FC and AS Tonnerre FC in the Benin Republic.

He has also featured for Niger Tornadoes FC and Calabar Rovers FC making a significant impact wherever he has played. His journey through these various teams has helped shape him into the versatile player he is today, capable of stepping up in key moments, as seen in this vital match against Madiba FC.

This win boosts Rovers FC's hopes in the ongoing NNL season, and with a player like Oloke in top form, their defensive solidity and ability to grab crucial goals could prove invaluable in their quest for promotion.
