I
have picked Nembe City left wing back, Jonathan Zikiye (pictured), as my star man for this
week's team of the Glo Premier League Matchday 23.
It
is the third time Zikiye is making my team this season after previously being
named in my matchday five and 21 teams.
The
former Bayelsa United wing back ran Nasarawa United down on the flank by
bombing forward.
Zikiye,
who has scored two league goals in 17 appearances this season for City, capped
it up with an eye-catching volley for a goal off Ebitimi Agogu's assist on
Sunday.
For
the first time this season, Chijioke Ejiogu, also known as Arugo Monkey, makes
my team as the number one.
The
goalkeeper practically kept Sharks in the game at Kwara United. At a point, he
pulled off two saves from Kabiru Sanusi and then another from Jimoh Oseni at
close range.
Ejiogu's
performance dwarfed that of Wikki Tourists custodian, Ayo Segun, who was a
monster between the sticks against Bayelsa United.
The
trio of Brown Braye, Adebayo Adigun and Peter Jang will join Zikiye in my
defence.
I
have settled for three central midfield players in Suleiman Usman, Stone
Evbuomwan and Chidiebere Okolie while the pair of Ezioha Okereke and Ndubuisi
Ekwuruibe will play behind the lone striker, Babangida Ibrahim.
Gbenga
Ogunbote of Sharks is my coach of the week after guiding his team to secure a
draw against all odds.
