Bendel Insurance on Saturday won their first league match in six weeks after defeating El-Kanemi Warriors 2-1 in Match Day 15 of the 2022/23 Nigeria Premier Football League.

The Benin Arsenal who prior to this match at the Samuel Ogbemudia Stadium, Benin City had drawn their last five games but still remain unbeaten in Group A of the league.

They had drawn 1-1 with Enyimba, Akwa United, Plateau United, Bendel Insurance and Remo Stars respectively before returning to winning ways against El-Kanemi Warriors who have managed just 1 win in their last 10 matches.

The first half had ended goalless but the home side turned on the heat on their visitors as two quick goals put the home side in a comfortable lead.
