Despite Green White Green Sports Centre Ltd warning to universities and other higher institutions of learning against partaking in the Higher Institutions Football League , the competition kicked off with an exciting qualifying round of matches across the five centers on Tuesday.
UNILAG Marines, looking to put the woes of the previous editions behind them having never gone past the preliminary rounds, top the group with 3points as they hope to consolidate on that victory going into the next fixture against LAUCTECH Warriors on Thursday. Earlier, the game between ABUAD Stars and FUTA Tigers ended in a 1-1 draw.
