Bendel Insurance goalkeeper Amas Obasogie has revealed the secrets behind his club’s impressive start to the current Nigeria Premier Football League campaign as well as his clinical form between the sticks.

The Benin Arsenals have enjoyed the brightest start to their campaign following their return to the topflight this season and Obasogie has been instrumental to their incredible run of form.

The Nigerian topflight newcomers have recorded four wins in four matches, including a 3-0 thrashing of Remo Stars at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium.

Reflecting on their good start, Obasogie is excited about her fantastic showing between the goalpost, recording three clean sheets in four consecutive matches, while attributing the good run to their dutiful management and coaches.

“I feel so happy and delighted, it’s a dream for every goalkeepers to accumulate cleansheets in the Nigerian league, I want to thank my team mates and most especially to my defenders for the job well done,” Obasogie told Nigeriafootball.ng.

“We started well due to the good preparations from the coaches and the management, the grace and love of God is also upon the team. My target with Bendel Insurance this season is to remain in the NPFL and to win trophies.”

Bendel Insurance are in Maiduguri, where they will face off with El Kanemi Warriors in search for a fifth consecutive win this season at the El Kanemi Stadium on Wednesday.
