Biliaminu's goal was sufficient to win the trophy and one million Naira for his team

With a victory over Ijebu United in the southwest derby final on Saturday at the Remo Stars International Stadium in Ikenne, Ogun State, Beyond Limits won its first Optima Energy Gold Cup after three tries.

The trio of Onyebuchi Obasi, Farouq Ogundare, and Olude Muyideen quickly picked up the tempo of the game and reeled in the Young Sky Blue Stars, who had been playing well up until that point. This made it difficult for the Ijebu United backline to keep up with them.

Biliaminu Abdullahi, a spectacular substitute and the game's top scorer, drove the stadium's crowd into a frenzy when he hit the game-winning strike from 20 yards in the 41st minute, deflecting off an Ijebu United defender for the opening goal just before halftime.

It was Biliaminu's second goal in the 11th edition of the Optima Energy Gold Cup preseason competition against Ijebu United after his first in the previous Group A match.

Biliaminu's goal was sufficient to win the trophy and one million Naira for his team, and he also received the most valuable player and top scorer awards. Ijebu United received five hundred thousand naira (500,000) as the runner-up prize.
